1 00:00:08,960 --> 00:00:13,280 Speaker 1: This is me eat podcast coming at you shirtless, severely, 2 00:00:13,480 --> 00:00:17,680 Speaker 1: bug bitten, and in my case, underwear listening. Don't eat podcast. 3 00:00:18,280 --> 00:00:23,520 Speaker 1: You can't predict anything presented by first light. Go farther, 4 00:00:23,840 --> 00:00:33,159 Speaker 1: stay longer, get right up top. If you hate dogs, 5 00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:37,400 Speaker 1: quit listening. That almost makes me have to quit listening. 6 00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:41,480 Speaker 1: But if I don't like, I'm conflicted. I'm gonna stick 7 00:00:41,479 --> 00:00:45,880 Speaker 1: it out because maybe this's like even though I own one. Yeah, 8 00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:49,120 Speaker 1: it's complicated for me. If you love it, believe me, 9 00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:51,720 Speaker 1: put a positive spin on it. If you love dogs, 10 00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:55,880 Speaker 1: if you love our fairy friends, stick around. That's a bet. 11 00:00:55,880 --> 00:00:57,280 Speaker 1: That's a better way to put it. Yeah. I was 12 00:00:57,280 --> 00:01:00,400 Speaker 1: gonna say, if you ask hate dogs and just f 13 00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:03,520 Speaker 1: you don't hate him. But my brother the other day 14 00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:06,000 Speaker 1: was asking me he was he was disappointed to hear. 15 00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:09,759 Speaker 1: We were kind of talking about if everyone in your family, Uh, 16 00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:11,319 Speaker 1: I don't want to use the word died, but like 17 00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:13,479 Speaker 1: went away. I would say, if everyone in my family 18 00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:15,280 Speaker 1: went away, I would go get rid of this dog, 19 00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:19,560 Speaker 1: our dog. I'd find someone that wanted a dog. And 20 00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:22,280 Speaker 1: he just felt that was the most cutthroat, cold blooded 21 00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:24,559 Speaker 1: thing you'd ever heard. Yeah, I've heard that. I heard 22 00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:27,600 Speaker 1: that story through the grapevine, and I've personally retold that 23 00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:30,400 Speaker 1: story at least three or four times. Sort of you 24 00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:37,200 Speaker 1: tube run yeah, sort of like explaining who Stephen Ronnella is. Yeah, Well, 25 00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:39,640 Speaker 1: what's your problem with dogs? You're just like extra work, 26 00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:42,640 Speaker 1: extra baggage. I don't like going a lot. I'm gone 27 00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:44,320 Speaker 1: a lot, and it's just another thing I got to 28 00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:47,720 Speaker 1: think about. Yeah, your kids and your wife, but they're 29 00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:52,440 Speaker 1: in this situation. They've um gone to heaven. I don't 30 00:01:52,440 --> 00:01:55,000 Speaker 1: want to think of something bad happening to him. We're 31 00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:57,080 Speaker 1: talking about the situation in which I now have to 32 00:01:57,080 --> 00:01:59,120 Speaker 1: take care of the dog by myself and always be 33 00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:00,840 Speaker 1: gaming out wanting an do with the thing. I think. 34 00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:02,760 Speaker 1: I think that's sad, because you donna need a friend. 35 00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:09,480 Speaker 1: If they're gone, will you still be here? I think 36 00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:11,920 Speaker 1: you'd have a different relationship with your dog if it 37 00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:14,320 Speaker 1: was a working dog, Steve, you know, if it was 38 00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:17,280 Speaker 1: a dog that was doing stuff for you, it changes 39 00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:21,440 Speaker 1: the whole dynamic. I almost just said you have had 40 00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:24,480 Speaker 1: way more dogs and you'll ever have, but that's not true. 41 00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:27,600 Speaker 1: But for most people in this room, I've had way 42 00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:31,880 Speaker 1: more dogs than you will ever have. Okay, way more 43 00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:33,639 Speaker 1: than you will ever have. You as an adult, have 44 00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:35,679 Speaker 1: head way more dogs. As a kid, we had a 45 00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:39,040 Speaker 1: dog every two weeks. That doesn't count. We always yeah, 46 00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:42,240 Speaker 1: but that doesn't count. To get word from a puppy. 47 00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:43,840 Speaker 1: Let it grow up and die and go to the 48 00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 1: vet and euthanize it. That's owning the dogs. We had 49 00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:48,880 Speaker 1: a dog one time. Here's how this dog came in 50 00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:50,720 Speaker 1: our life. My old man was driving down the road 51 00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:53,480 Speaker 1: to go rabbit hunting and saw a beagle walking down 52 00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:56,000 Speaker 1: the road and called the dog into his truck. And 53 00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:59,239 Speaker 1: we had that dog for years, and then he gave 54 00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:02,240 Speaker 1: it to our neighbor. Did you turn it into a 55 00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:05,359 Speaker 1: rabbit dog? It did rabbit hum, but I don't think 56 00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:06,560 Speaker 1: it ever got good. I think that's why he gave 57 00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:08,640 Speaker 1: it to the neighbor. Another time, he goes and gets 58 00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:11,760 Speaker 1: a dog and it would get it'd like to play thatch, 59 00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:15,800 Speaker 1: so would take green tomatoes out of the garden. So 60 00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:18,680 Speaker 1: my dad brings it to like he would bring things 61 00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:22,200 Speaker 1: to like the farm, you know, like the euphemism kind 62 00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:23,560 Speaker 1: of way to get rid of a dog. But this 63 00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:28,520 Speaker 1: dog he literally brought to his friend's farm eleven miles away. 64 00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:30,800 Speaker 1: A couple of days later, we're eating dinner and I 65 00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:33,160 Speaker 1: look out the window and here comes this dog named 66 00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:36,840 Speaker 1: a Kayla. Here comes his dog streaking past the window 67 00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:40,960 Speaker 1: carrying a green tomato in his mouth. That's something bitch 68 00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:45,840 Speaker 1: found our house. And then it went like to the farm. 69 00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:48,120 Speaker 1: That was that there was just never whatever he brought 70 00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:50,280 Speaker 1: it and didn't come back. Oh, he was ruthless, was dogs. 71 00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:55,240 Speaker 1: He had a cat, Maud, that had babies in his 72 00:03:55,320 --> 00:04:01,000 Speaker 1: shoe and then ate the babies out of his shoe. Yeah, 73 00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:06,000 Speaker 1: I think about that, Steve. Did he wear the shoes again? 74 00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:07,880 Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know. I was very young. 75 00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:10,600 Speaker 1: But then he had another cat that he tamed named 76 00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:13,400 Speaker 1: fig the cat I told the story because he then 77 00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:15,200 Speaker 1: he took it to a pig farmer to try to castrate, 78 00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:19,200 Speaker 1: and the cat fought them all a lot of dogs, Steve, 79 00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:22,080 Speaker 1: who all do we have joining us this morning for 80 00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:28,440 Speaker 1: this lovely podcast?

But 169 00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:48,280 Speaker 1: I always wear my clothes multiple days in a row, 170 00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:52,160 Speaker 1: and I was pointing out that let's say the earth 171 00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:56,959 Speaker 1: spun slower than it spins, and it took the earth 172 00:08:57,240 --> 00:09:02,920 Speaker 1: forty eight hours to rotate. Would everybody go home midday 173 00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:08,160 Speaker 1: and change their clothes. No, they would run. They would 174 00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:12,920 Speaker 1: run those clothes twice as long without changing them. So 175 00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:15,480 Speaker 1: to wear your clothes twice, there's no way. Would be 176 00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:16,640 Speaker 1: like noon and everybody like, well, I got you know, 177 00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:18,760 Speaker 1: I gotta run home and change. I've had these clothes 178 00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:22,160 Speaker 1: on for X hours. Do you know what I'm saying? 179 00:09:22,400 --> 00:09:25,640 Speaker 1: I do? But nighttime just a natural reset point. It 180 00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:31,360 Speaker 1: just makes sense. I take them all off, I throw 181 00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:32,920 Speaker 1: them down to the ground next to my bed. I 182 00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:34,800 Speaker 1: wake up and put them all back on again. Sometimes 183 00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:36,480 Speaker 1: I wake up, put them all back on again, take 184 00:09:36,559 --> 00:09:38,200 Speaker 1: them off, take a shower, put them back on again, 185 00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:41,880 Speaker 1: and then come to work. Kids are generally just more 186 00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:44,640 Speaker 1: sticky and dirty in general. I think. I mean, I've 187 00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:46,199 Speaker 1: been wearing this this, I even watched this pair of 188 00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:47,960 Speaker 1: jeans and I don't know a couple of weeks. Now 189 00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:50,320 Speaker 1: you know what I'm talking about. Yeah, it's got sticky 190 00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:53,680 Speaker 1: bun residue all over. If your kids wore those jeans, 191 00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:57,560 Speaker 1: you're right, Oh yeah, exactly. Well, there'd be um, I 192 00:09:57,559 --> 00:09:58,800 Speaker 1: hate to say it, but there'd be some kind of 193 00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:01,959 Speaker 1: poop on them. Hold of your kids until a certain age. 194 00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:04,319 Speaker 1: I've got a two year old, so that, yeah, that's true. 195 00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:06,360 Speaker 1: But then I've got an eight year old. The poop 196 00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:07,920 Speaker 1: problem with the eight year old is pretty much kind 197 00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:09,679 Speaker 1: they were they wrap it up after a while.

So 289 00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:01,480 Speaker 1: this is your first dog? First first actual do get 290 00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:07,040 Speaker 1: four pound dog? Uh?

We had a thing 294 00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:18,200 Speaker 1: about that, so card to explain. Now, who can explain this? 295 00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:20,240 Speaker 1: Let me? I explain it once. I got sick of 296 00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:24,840 Speaker 1: explaining it even then. Normally, when you buy a fishing license, 297 00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:29,000 Speaker 1: um normally to buy a fishing license, the license fee 298 00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:31,440 Speaker 1: goes to those states fishing game agency. So you go 299 00:16:31,480 --> 00:16:34,240 Speaker 1: down and buy a fishing license that winds up being 300 00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:38,080 Speaker 1: dedicated funding for fishing wildlife management. It is. It's not 301 00:16:38,120 --> 00:16:39,800 Speaker 1: like when you pay your taxes and they just do what. 302 00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:42,120 Speaker 1: You know, your taxes going to a general fund and 303 00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:44,520 Speaker 1: the state does whatever the whatever it does with it. Right, 304 00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:47,760 Speaker 1: It's not like you can pick I'd like my taxes 305 00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:50,920 Speaker 1: to go to UH infrastructure reform. You know, it just 306 00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:52,680 Speaker 1: goes into a general fund and they do their deal. 307 00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:56,360 Speaker 1: Fishing licenses are different because their agency specifics. So you 308 00:16:56,520 --> 00:16:59,640 Speaker 1: you buy a license, it funds the agency, and then 309 00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:02,720 Speaker 1: there's mechanisms in place that make it the states that 310 00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:07,080 Speaker 1: the de incentivized states from robbing that general fund, I'm sorry, 311 00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:10,639 Speaker 1: from robbing that specific fish and game fund. We had 312 00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:14,640 Speaker 1: a guy right in and saying that the Massachusetts never 313 00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:19,520 Speaker 1: used to require saltwater license. They require saltwater license now. 314 00:17:20,640 --> 00:17:24,320 Speaker 1: And he was telling us how that saltwater license fee 315 00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:27,200 Speaker 1: goes to the general fund where it can be diverted 316 00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:31,760 Speaker 1: into all kinds of bs and doesn't stay specific specific. 317 00:17:32,760 --> 00:17:36,960 Speaker 1: In Gloucester, everybody told me, I said that wrong. Another 318 00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:40,639 Speaker 1: guy rolling and said that guy is quote completely incorrect. 319 00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:47,000 Speaker 1: Explain crin. So guy number one from Gloucester, Gloucester called 320 00:17:47,040 --> 00:17:51,760 Speaker 1: Gloucester one, and then there's Gloucester two. Gloucester two says 321 00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:57,600 Speaker 1: that in fact, all the money collected from saltwater licenses 322 00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:02,119 Speaker 1: go into a dedicated fund and that a third of 323 00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:07,320 Speaker 1: the money collected must go to improving public access. He 324 00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:09,440 Speaker 1: goes on to say it would have taken you less 325 00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:12,439 Speaker 1: than one minute to look up and fact check this 326 00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:18,040 Speaker 1: issue before broadcasting false information on your podcast Salty And 327 00:18:18,119 --> 00:18:21,480 Speaker 1: then he says he's a frequent listener, but he's right, 328 00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:23,199 Speaker 1: He's right. I don't know why, and when I was 329 00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:25,720 Speaker 1: reading it, in the back of my head was like, 330 00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:29,280 Speaker 1: we should probably look into this. My grand points out 331 00:18:29,359 --> 00:18:31,720 Speaker 1: that she's checked it and had someone else check it 332 00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:34,840 Speaker 1: and timed those people, and it took those people longer 333 00:18:34,880 --> 00:18:37,479 Speaker 1: than a minute to check it, but not too much long. 334 00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:40,480 Speaker 1: So the guy's right. So if he had said it 335 00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:43,919 Speaker 1: would taken you not much longer than a minute, he 336 00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:48,080 Speaker 1: had been correct. Uh. The one thing, though, I called 337 00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:52,280 Speaker 1: the Massachusetts Division of Marine Fisheries and I'm waiting for 338 00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:55,280 Speaker 1: a call back because I couldn't find where they stated 339 00:18:55,320 --> 00:19:00,840 Speaker 1: that one third of the money must go to fishing access. Yeah, 340 00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:03,880 Speaker 1: so I don't want to put that bit of unchecked 341 00:19:04,320 --> 00:19:07,080 Speaker 1: information across to all of our podcast listeners just yet. 342 00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:12,280 Speaker 1: When the guy when Gloucester one called his state tax Achusetts, 343 00:19:12,320 --> 00:19:17,160 Speaker 1: which is fine, I should have been like I detected 344 00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:22,240 Speaker 1: by US, I detect a blind spot.

This is a warning tale. Well, 356 00:19:57,760 --> 00:19:59,800 Speaker 1: I had some I'll try to do it, not like 357 00:19:59,840 --> 00:20:01,600 Speaker 1: my mom. I'll try to do a short version. But 358 00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:06,359 Speaker 1: I had invertly taken the twenty two revolver and stuck 359 00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:08,480 Speaker 1: it into my dry bag, and I was going out 360 00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:12,280 Speaker 1: to Utah real quickly that inadvertently, well, it was like 361 00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:13,960 Speaker 1: I had to move it somewhere. There was there was 362 00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:15,840 Speaker 1: somebody coming to my kennel. I just didn't want to 363 00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:18,280 Speaker 1: pistol lay in there. So I just kind of like 364 00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:20,919 Speaker 1: slam dunked it up into a shelf. Well, I actually 365 00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:22,879 Speaker 1: threw it into my dry bag because you thought they'd 366 00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:25,000 Speaker 1: see the pistol and be alarmed. Yeah, I mean they're 367 00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:26,560 Speaker 1: coming over to look at dogs, you know, and like, 368 00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:28,119 Speaker 1: why is this guy got a pistol lay not on 369 00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:31,119 Speaker 1: the counter. So anyway, I looked at the weather report 370 00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:33,840 Speaker 1: before my flight. I saw that was gonna be raining, 371 00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:36,840 Speaker 1: and judging in the rain sucks. So I grabbed all 372 00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:39,399 Speaker 1: my gear judging dogs. Yeah, and I grab all my 373 00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:41,680 Speaker 1: ring gear and I stick it in that bag without 374 00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:45,240 Speaker 1: checking that bag. So now that bag, that's how it 375 00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:48,119 Speaker 1: happened that bag has got a loaded twenty two pistol 376 00:20:48,160 --> 00:20:50,680 Speaker 1: with a six inch barrel on it, and it's a 377 00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:53,639 Speaker 1: large it almost looks like a cult pythe and almost 378 00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:57,640 Speaker 1: it's huge gun even though it's a twenty two. And 379 00:20:57,680 --> 00:20:59,480 Speaker 1: I had my first time I got that pre check 380 00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:00,919 Speaker 1: where you don't have to take your shoes off, and 381 00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:03,919 Speaker 1: I was feeling all kind of smarty. I was like, 382 00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:07,119 Speaker 1: looking at me, I got my shoes on, and and 383 00:21:07,160 --> 00:21:09,199 Speaker 1: I'm kind of I'm leaning on that conveyor, you know, 384 00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:10,920 Speaker 1: and I'm kind of judging the conveyor, like, oh, that's 385 00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:13,800 Speaker 1: pretty good. Rollers on this conveyored lines kind of building 386 00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:15,439 Speaker 1: up behind me. And then the guy looking up at 387 00:21:15,480 --> 00:21:17,320 Speaker 1: the screen, he turns the screen so I can see it. 388 00:21:17,359 --> 00:21:21,480 Speaker 1: He goes, is this your bag? I don't go up there, 389 00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:26,240 Speaker 1: and I can see everything but the serial number, and 390 00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:31,639 Speaker 1: I I'm like, I even told the guy said I 391 00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:35,240 Speaker 1: said yes, and it's loaded, because I'm like, I better 392 00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:39,240 Speaker 1: just get it clear. And he said, well, we'll stay 393 00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:41,080 Speaker 1: right there, and they diverted the rest of the line. 394 00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:43,200 Speaker 1: You know, they had the people who didn't have to 395 00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:45,000 Speaker 1: take your shoes off had to go on the other line. 396 00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:47,520 Speaker 1: They weren't they weren't happy with me, a little salty, 397 00:21:47,720 --> 00:21:50,360 Speaker 1: and I was probably at that little conveyor stand there 398 00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:52,719 Speaker 1: where you get your stuff back for ten minutes. All 399 00:21:52,760 --> 00:21:55,520 Speaker 1: three different people came up and questioned me did they 400 00:21:55,560 --> 00:21:58,760 Speaker 1: coffee and stuff? Right there? Right once?

And then the late There was 432 00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:29,760 Speaker 1: a lady police officer that worked at the Grand Rapids Airport. 433 00:23:30,080 --> 00:23:32,240 Speaker 1: They have their own little office.

She uncuffs my cuffs, then handcuffs my left 448 00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:16,080 Speaker 1: arm to the wall, like to a short handcuff to 449 00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:18,320 Speaker 1: the wall, and I'm sitting in a chair just like this, 450 00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:21,399 Speaker 1: and and then she'd got a piece of paper and 451 00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:22,760 Speaker 1: I got to write a statement, and I'm like, well 452 00:24:22,800 --> 00:24:27,199 Speaker 1: I'm left handed. So instead of like I always felt like, 453 00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:30,720 Speaker 1: well you didn't think this through, because all they went 454 00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:34,159 Speaker 1: and got like three other officers cuffs and made like 455 00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:36,680 Speaker 1: a chain of cuffs instead of switching hands, instead of 456 00:24:36,680 --> 00:24:39,960 Speaker 1: switching hands, instead of like okay, uncuff him, put his 457 00:24:40,040 --> 00:24:42,119 Speaker 1: right arm on the table and let him right left.

And then she said 464 00:24:55,720 --> 00:24:57,800 Speaker 1: what kind of dogs? And I told her bird dogs 465 00:24:58,040 --> 00:24:59,600 Speaker 1: and her eyes lit up, and I was like, oh, 466 00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:01,959 Speaker 1: I'm I might I might have it here, you know. 467 00:25:02,400 --> 00:25:04,120 Speaker 1: But I thought for sure, like my life was over 468 00:25:04,119 --> 00:25:06,760 Speaker 1: because if I had I assumed it was a felony, 469 00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:10,240 Speaker 1: just because why wouldn't it be right? And turned out 470 00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:11,800 Speaker 1: to be. I had a loot. I lost my gun. 471 00:25:11,840 --> 00:25:15,320 Speaker 1: It was a misdemeanor.

My lawyer 493 00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:20,240 Speaker 1: went in front of the whatever, the person that works 494 00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:23,680 Speaker 1: with the judge, and uh, they did all their things. 495 00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:25,320 Speaker 1: I sat out in the hallway both times I went 496 00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:27,480 Speaker 1: to court. I don't know what they were talking about. 497 00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:29,040 Speaker 1: So I feel I feel like I remember part of 498 00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:30,880 Speaker 1: the story you're not mentioned where you then said your 499 00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:34,760 Speaker 1: lawyer like, what about the gun?

That's like asking a doc if 503 00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:48,199 Speaker 1: you don't have to take your heart medicine, do I 504 00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:51,200 Speaker 1: have to keep taking this? Uh?

You know, not really you know that 506 00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:56,320 Speaker 1: story about when we had a jet boil canist during it? 507 00:26:56,800 --> 00:27:03,240 Speaker 1: What was our initial fine? The lawyers four? And so 508 00:27:03,320 --> 00:27:08,520 Speaker 1: this guy he paid half of a week for a 509 00:27:08,560 --> 00:27:11,520 Speaker 1: jet ball canister. Paid he paid half for a pistol 510 00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:13,600 Speaker 1: what you paid for a jet bawl canister. But he 511 00:27:13,640 --> 00:27:15,640 Speaker 1: had an unloaded one. I don't know if that matters though, 512 00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:17,920 Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know about severity. But my 513 00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:20,199 Speaker 1: oh yeah, here's the other part that was funny. So 514 00:27:20,240 --> 00:27:22,160 Speaker 1: I'm sitting in that room, locked up against the wall, 515 00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:25,760 Speaker 1: and as I walked into that room, there's this little 516 00:27:26,320 --> 00:27:28,840 Speaker 1: i'd call it almost like a closet, and there's a 517 00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:31,720 Speaker 1: shooting sand trap, like so you can just charge the 518 00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:36,840 Speaker 1: firearms and they're all ready for this stuff apparently.

Now this was like, you know 523 00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:50,240 Speaker 1: what a top break pistol is. The back peep site 524 00:27:50,280 --> 00:27:53,199 Speaker 1: comes up, it breaks open like a shotgun, right, and 525 00:27:53,280 --> 00:27:55,719 Speaker 1: this cop is in there and he pokes his head 526 00:27:55,760 --> 00:27:59,800 Speaker 1: around the corner. He goes, yeah, he goes, how do 527 00:27:59,840 --> 00:28:06,000 Speaker 1: you open it? Things? I'm like, push up on the 528 00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:08,160 Speaker 1: back of for your site. He goes back in there, 529 00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:11,920 Speaker 1: but thirty second goes thanks because he didn't want to 530 00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:14,760 Speaker 1: go to his sergeant and go like, I gotta go 531 00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:16,200 Speaker 1: to I don't know how to get the bullets out 532 00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:18,719 Speaker 1: of it though, I don't know where the lever is. 533 00:28:19,240 --> 00:28:22,160 Speaker 1: I got held up by the police and the anchorage 534 00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:25,840 Speaker 1: report for shotgun shells. Oh, they took you away from 535 00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:28,359 Speaker 1: the line, and you know that happened to me there too. 536 00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:30,239 Speaker 1: You know, you gave me something. I forgot to take 537 00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:33,040 Speaker 1: him out of my bag. But they were they knew, 538 00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:35,719 Speaker 1: yeah it happened. They were They were kind of like, 539 00:28:35,760 --> 00:28:38,480 Speaker 1: I really like you dumbass, Now we gotta go through 540 00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:40,800 Speaker 1: all these things. Was like, we gotta do through all 541 00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:43,600 Speaker 1: this And obviously what you're telling us is like you 542 00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:45,320 Speaker 1: went tarming and hunting, which is what I did and 543 00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:48,600 Speaker 1: had like a bird shot. And then their their attitude 544 00:28:48,640 --> 00:28:51,520 Speaker 1: was more that you've just cost us like a bunch 545 00:28:51,560 --> 00:28:53,360 Speaker 1: of filling papers out we were going to have a 546 00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:55,200 Speaker 1: cigarette break and now we have to take care of 547 00:28:55,240 --> 00:28:57,200 Speaker 1: your dumbass. Yeah, it was. It was. No, there was 548 00:28:57,240 --> 00:29:01,760 Speaker 1: no serious questioning, you know, o question of legality from 549 00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:07,520 Speaker 1: a listener. It's about our quid pro quid pro after Ukraine, 550 00:29:07,680 --> 00:29:10,960 Speaker 1: the Ukraine scandal. It's hard to say quid pro quo 551 00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:18,080 Speaker 1: because it got forever tied to the Ukraine scandal. Anyways, 552 00:29:18,600 --> 00:29:24,120 Speaker 1: we're not scandal, the scandal that wasn't the scandal anyways. Uh, 553 00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:28,240 Speaker 1: we're talking about sturgeon scandal, the sturgeon scandal that occurred 554 00:29:28,240 --> 00:29:33,000 Speaker 1: in where are you any Wisconsin. Yes, biologists are like 555 00:29:33,080 --> 00:29:36,280 Speaker 1: taking you know, sturgeon row. Caviar is very valuable and 556 00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:40,680 Speaker 1: there's biologists that extract the row and there's various just 557 00:29:40,680 --> 00:29:45,280 Speaker 1: just crash course quickn't mind. Yeah, there was. They have 558 00:29:45,400 --> 00:29:48,040 Speaker 1: check stations when when these sturgeon come in. They had 559 00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:52,080 Speaker 1: every sturgeon that spear needs to be checked, and there 560 00:29:52,440 --> 00:29:57,240 Speaker 1: was there were some coolers that were at that check 561 00:29:57,320 --> 00:30:00,800 Speaker 1: station that were specifically four eggs it were then going 562 00:30:00,840 --> 00:30:05,480 Speaker 1: to processors, and then it looks as if maybe people 563 00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:08,240 Speaker 1: that worked for the game and fish were then getting 564 00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:14,640 Speaker 1: cured finished jars of caviare in return, and so you 565 00:30:14,760 --> 00:30:19,360 Speaker 1: had this trade, you know, of goods for a finished product, 566 00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:22,160 Speaker 1: which became illegal. At the same time, there was also 567 00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:27,160 Speaker 1: some folks that we did some work with, um Vic 568 00:30:27,280 --> 00:30:35,960 Speaker 1: and uh Mary Lou that were similarly basically cleaning up 569 00:30:35,960 --> 00:30:39,760 Speaker 1: eggs for people, curing them and then giving them back 570 00:30:39,800 --> 00:30:43,600 Speaker 1: to them, but also holding onto a small portion of 571 00:30:43,600 --> 00:30:47,840 Speaker 1: it for themselves. So again sort of getting paid by 572 00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:50,600 Speaker 1: you know, holding onto it, which you can't do right. 573 00:30:50,720 --> 00:30:53,160 Speaker 1: So so I don't think we've seen what's gonna come 574 00:30:53,200 --> 00:30:56,520 Speaker 1: of it yet. I haven't heard any updates about that story. 575 00:30:56,560 --> 00:31:00,840 Speaker 1: But anyways, folks gotten in trouble for bartering, trading, selling 576 00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:03,200 Speaker 1: wild games. Am I correct and saying though that this 577 00:31:03,280 --> 00:31:05,440 Speaker 1: is just something that went on there. It wasn't like 578 00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:07,360 Speaker 1: they were trying to hide it. It was just something 579 00:31:07,400 --> 00:31:10,400 Speaker 1: like that's kind of part of the culture there. Certainly 580 00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:14,160 Speaker 1: with Vick and Mary Lou, it was very very much 581 00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:15,959 Speaker 1: like that. I think they had been warned in the 582 00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:18,480 Speaker 1: past and it was just sort of like, oh no, 583 00:31:18,600 --> 00:31:21,120 Speaker 1: we're just helping out the community, you know, And this 584 00:31:21,240 --> 00:31:24,640 Speaker 1: wasn't a black market. Yeah. I remember when I first 585 00:31:24,680 --> 00:31:27,520 Speaker 1: heard about it. I don't know why I've talked about this. 586 00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:29,120 Speaker 1: I first heard about it was like, oh, yeah, he 587 00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:33,000 Speaker 1: was selling eggs to the Russians, which gets your hackles up, 588 00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:35,360 Speaker 1: you know. Yeah, so you started rolling the Russians into 589 00:31:35,400 --> 00:31:39,360 Speaker 1: something Russian mafia. Yeah, like, oh man, you know you're 590 00:31:39,360 --> 00:31:41,440 Speaker 1: picturing like guns and whatnot, but I want to be 591 00:31:41,440 --> 00:31:45,480 Speaker 1: And it was the neighbors by the Russians. I meant 592 00:31:46,400 --> 00:31:50,160 Speaker 1: his neighbors. I don't know. Guy rolled in about this though, 593 00:31:50,800 --> 00:31:54,240 Speaker 1: considering that you can't barter, trade sell wild game with 594 00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:57,720 Speaker 1: some exceptions which will not get into uh, he lays 595 00:31:57,720 --> 00:32:01,360 Speaker 1: out this little conundrum he's in.

You bring the meat. It's a great idea. 625 00:33:42,680 --> 00:33:44,480 Speaker 1: You bring the meat back and put it on the table, 626 00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:47,640 Speaker 1: and then you sell raffle tickets, draw raffle tickets. Brodie's 627 00:33:47,720 --> 00:33:49,960 Speaker 1: number comes up, like, I say, oh, I pulled the 628 00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:52,080 Speaker 1: hat out number one.

However, the modern competitive adult game of 651 00:35:23,440 --> 00:35:26,239 Speaker 1: tiddley Winks made a strong comeback at the University of 652 00:35:26,320 --> 00:35:30,680 Speaker 1: Cambridge in nine. Modern game uses far more complex rules 653 00:35:30,680 --> 00:35:35,080 Speaker 1: and a consistent set of high grade equipment. So back 654 00:35:35,080 --> 00:35:36,840 Speaker 1: in the day, if you had a child that was 655 00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:38,719 Speaker 1: an academic, you just put him in the yard with 656 00:35:38,719 --> 00:35:41,120 Speaker 1: a cup and some tiddley winks. He would just kill 657 00:35:41,200 --> 00:35:43,560 Speaker 1: some hours and you could get some laundry done. And 658 00:35:43,640 --> 00:35:45,280 Speaker 1: as long as he learns how to fold his raffle 659 00:35:45,320 --> 00:35:47,640 Speaker 1: tickets right, he will have plenty of meat from the 660 00:35:47,680 --> 00:35:50,759 Speaker 1: meat raffle. He'll be fine. Got rolling in with a 661 00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:53,000 Speaker 1: poem for Kevin Murphy. Who someone get ready to read 662 00:35:53,000 --> 00:35:54,520 Speaker 1: the poem. I'll tee it up. And someone else has 663 00:35:54,560 --> 00:35:58,680 Speaker 1: read the poem. You gotta read the poem. I read 664 00:35:58,680 --> 00:36:01,120 Speaker 1: it to my kids this morning. Okay. A listener had 665 00:36:01,120 --> 00:36:04,320 Speaker 1: heard our episode with Kevin Murphy about trying to trail 666 00:36:04,760 --> 00:36:08,040 Speaker 1: uh cotton tail rabbits out in the desert with dogs 667 00:36:08,080 --> 00:36:14,680 Speaker 1: from Kentucky. Um and how and we heard this from 668 00:36:14,800 --> 00:36:17,760 Speaker 1: Jake grib too, kind of our one of our resident 669 00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:22,400 Speaker 1: dog experts that the dog lives at a certain climate, 670 00:36:22,520 --> 00:36:28,360 Speaker 1: certain humidity, certain foliage. It seems to become like accustomed 671 00:36:28,360 --> 00:36:30,560 Speaker 1: to those things, and then it tracks and those things 672 00:36:30,600 --> 00:36:31,799 Speaker 1: and when you move them, like you can take a 673 00:36:31,800 --> 00:36:33,880 Speaker 1: dog from a wet place and move them to a desert, 674 00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:36,239 Speaker 1: just throws him out of way, takes him while he's 675 00:36:36,239 --> 00:36:39,080 Speaker 1: gotta kind of relearn all of his tricks, whateverything smells 676 00:36:39,160 --> 00:36:41,920 Speaker 1: like and how everything goes. So this guy came up 677 00:36:41,960 --> 00:36:46,160 Speaker 1: with he calls it an a fourism anecdote colloquialism, or 678 00:36:46,160 --> 00:36:49,920 Speaker 1: whatever you choose to call it. Hit a grin. This 679 00:36:49,960 --> 00:36:54,280 Speaker 1: one's for you. Kevin Murphy. If on the morning breeze 680 00:36:54,440 --> 00:36:57,919 Speaker 1: you can smell your dog's daily habit, it's a damn 681 00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:07,080 Speaker 1: good day to go hunt. Rabbit explained that through Ronnie, 682 00:37:08,200 --> 00:37:12,520 Speaker 1: if you can smell, No one likes that poem. I 683 00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:14,200 Speaker 1: can't wait till we get that dial in here to 684 00:37:14,320 --> 00:37:16,560 Speaker 1: tell people, to tell what people think is good or not. 685 00:37:16,640 --> 00:37:20,280 Speaker 1: I thought i'd laugh track. No, no, no, we're getting 686 00:37:20,280 --> 00:37:23,120 Speaker 1: in We're getting a machine where everybody in here has 687 00:37:23,120 --> 00:37:25,239 Speaker 1: a dial they turned up and down to tell how 688 00:37:25,280 --> 00:37:27,080 Speaker 1: interested they aren't. Lights and light in the center of 689 00:37:27,120 --> 00:37:29,680 Speaker 1: the table so people know when they're being born. Cream 690 00:37:29,680 --> 00:37:33,120 Speaker 1: would have I would have cranked her. But um. Another 691 00:37:33,160 --> 00:37:36,120 Speaker 1: piece of feedback that came out of our Rabbit conversation 692 00:37:36,120 --> 00:37:38,680 Speaker 1: with Kevin Murphy is the guy wrote in about this 693 00:37:38,760 --> 00:37:42,000 Speaker 1: interesting practice that takes place in the Lake Okachobe region 694 00:37:42,280 --> 00:37:45,759 Speaker 1: and the sugar cane fields. And we're right now kind 695 00:37:45,760 --> 00:37:49,239 Speaker 1: of half watching some of these videos and it's fascinating 696 00:37:49,520 --> 00:37:53,320 Speaker 1: saying that when they when they burn off the fields 697 00:37:53,760 --> 00:37:55,799 Speaker 1: and then also kind of like they're harvesting, but also 698 00:37:55,840 --> 00:37:59,040 Speaker 1: burning off the cane fields. It's common practice for local 699 00:37:59,120 --> 00:38:04,080 Speaker 1: kids to come out with a stick in a in 700 00:38:04,120 --> 00:38:07,759 Speaker 1: a sack or a pillow case and to fill those 701 00:38:07,760 --> 00:38:10,680 Speaker 1: pillow cases up with rabbits that they just chase after 702 00:38:10,760 --> 00:38:14,399 Speaker 1: and whap with a stick, just hit them like they're 703 00:38:14,520 --> 00:38:16,319 Speaker 1: like you'd kill a fish. And you watch this thing, 704 00:38:16,360 --> 00:38:19,759 Speaker 1: it's like just just it's like a tap almost, and 705 00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:24,520 Speaker 1: you kids run around handfuls of rabbits. I have no 706 00:38:24,560 --> 00:38:26,279 Speaker 1: idea on the legality of it, like if they have 707 00:38:26,320 --> 00:38:28,120 Speaker 1: a seasoned method to take I don't know, but it's 708 00:38:28,320 --> 00:38:30,319 Speaker 1: but yeah, you can go online and find these these 709 00:38:30,400 --> 00:38:32,680 Speaker 1: kids around these rabbits up. It's really interesting. I like 710 00:38:32,800 --> 00:38:37,319 Speaker 1: the local legend stuff. What's the local legend? Well, look, 711 00:38:37,440 --> 00:38:40,960 Speaker 1: legend is the best football players developed their skills as 712 00:38:41,000 --> 00:38:46,480 Speaker 1: small children chasing rabbits. Because there's so many pro football players, 713 00:38:46,480 --> 00:38:48,880 Speaker 1: collegiate football players that are good that come out of 714 00:38:48,880 --> 00:38:52,520 Speaker 1: this small region of Florida where they grow sugarcane and 715 00:38:52,560 --> 00:38:55,320 Speaker 1: have this practice and you watch them run down the rabbits. 716 00:38:55,560 --> 00:39:00,080 Speaker 1: It's it's athletic. Yeah, I can't. I mean, you know, 717 00:39:00,280 --> 00:39:03,239 Speaker 1: I've seen plenty of rabbits running around and uh, I 718 00:39:03,320 --> 00:39:05,680 Speaker 1: haven't really chased them, but I can imagine I could 719 00:39:05,760 --> 00:39:07,799 Speaker 1: that I would not be able to run one down. 720 00:39:08,680 --> 00:39:15,320 Speaker 1: I'm looking at an NFL film, official NFL films. Uh 721 00:39:15,520 --> 00:39:19,720 Speaker 1: looks like Travis Benjamin and Generes Jenkins. So Giants player 722 00:39:19,960 --> 00:39:25,600 Speaker 1: and Chargers player. It looks like they grew up doing 723 00:39:25,640 --> 00:39:31,040 Speaker 1: this and uh hunting sugarcane exactly, and then they're in 724 00:39:31,040 --> 00:39:34,800 Speaker 1: the NFL. So there you have it. If it was 725 00:39:34,840 --> 00:39:36,440 Speaker 1: just one person, that could be a fluke. But it's 726 00:39:36,440 --> 00:39:42,320 Speaker 1: too Clay, tell tell everybody about this. This uh, this 727 00:39:42,320 --> 00:39:47,200 Speaker 1: this this raccoon dog. So a couple of weeks ago, 728 00:39:47,400 --> 00:39:49,120 Speaker 1: or at least it came out a couple of weeks 729 00:39:49,120 --> 00:39:52,799 Speaker 1: ago on social media, there was a coon dog in Tennessee. 730 00:39:53,640 --> 00:39:56,680 Speaker 1: They got stuck fifty feet up in a tree and 731 00:39:56,800 --> 00:40:02,560 Speaker 1: firefighters had to come rescue it. Do by that, Oh yeah, 732 00:40:02,600 --> 00:40:05,800 Speaker 1: oh yeah it Uh you can watch the video, you 733 00:40:05,840 --> 00:40:09,680 Speaker 1: can search for it. But Steve, that's pretty common. Um, 734 00:40:09,760 --> 00:40:13,520 Speaker 1: there are in in all the hound world, there are 735 00:40:13,680 --> 00:40:17,799 Speaker 1: dogs that are exceptionally good climbers that find themselves and 736 00:40:18,840 --> 00:40:23,240 Speaker 1: just advantageous situations for climbing a tree. Be at the tree, 737 00:40:23,320 --> 00:40:26,279 Speaker 1: is leaning, or be at the tree is a species 738 00:40:26,320 --> 00:40:29,640 Speaker 1: that has really grabby bark where they can just climb. 739 00:40:29,719 --> 00:40:32,680 Speaker 1: And then some dogs are just incredible climbers. And so 740 00:40:32,760 --> 00:40:36,040 Speaker 1: now I've never seen a dog up that high. And 741 00:40:36,040 --> 00:40:39,480 Speaker 1: it's so the story was in Tennessee that they had 742 00:40:39,480 --> 00:40:42,440 Speaker 1: to call the fire department to come get this dog 743 00:40:42,480 --> 00:40:45,440 Speaker 1: out of the tree. What's unclear to me is this 744 00:40:45,520 --> 00:40:48,839 Speaker 1: dog must have treated a coon pretty close to the 745 00:40:48,920 --> 00:40:51,520 Speaker 1: road or you know, somewhere where these guys could get 746 00:40:51,600 --> 00:40:56,000 Speaker 1: to it. And then the video shows them lowering the 747 00:40:56,080 --> 00:40:59,200 Speaker 1: dog out of the tree on some kind of pulley 748 00:40:59,320 --> 00:41:03,960 Speaker 1: system and they yeah, so some human had to go 749 00:41:04,200 --> 00:41:08,680 Speaker 1: up there, hook up the pulley system and then hooked 750 00:41:08,719 --> 00:41:11,400 Speaker 1: the dog to it and they kind of used it 751 00:41:11,440 --> 00:41:13,600 Speaker 1: was pretty it's pretty good. They it looked like a 752 00:41:13,680 --> 00:41:15,719 Speaker 1: chest harness on the dog, but it wasn't. It was 753 00:41:15,760 --> 00:41:18,880 Speaker 1: a rope that they tied themselves and then they lowered 754 00:41:18,920 --> 00:41:20,719 Speaker 1: the dog down. They didn't show that part. So I 755 00:41:20,760 --> 00:41:22,480 Speaker 1: don't know how they got up there to set all 756 00:41:22,560 --> 00:41:25,879 Speaker 1: this up. But I mean, a dog climbing that high, 757 00:41:25,880 --> 00:41:28,319 Speaker 1: they do it all the time. Dogs get killed. Uh. 758 00:41:28,680 --> 00:41:31,600 Speaker 1: Good friend of mine, Brent Reeves, he and his buddy 759 00:41:31,680 --> 00:41:34,880 Speaker 1: Carson just this last fall had a dog get killed 760 00:41:34,880 --> 00:41:37,960 Speaker 1: that fell out of a tree. But it's so it 761 00:41:38,040 --> 00:41:44,000 Speaker 1: happens chasing a raccoon. Well, they're just tree and you know, 762 00:41:44,080 --> 00:41:48,080 Speaker 1: like they they don't they're not watching the raccoon go 763 00:41:48,160 --> 00:41:50,160 Speaker 1: up the tree. But it's like I have a dog, 764 00:41:50,200 --> 00:41:54,399 Speaker 1: one of my dogs, Steve um Jedi, you hunted with him. 765 00:41:54,560 --> 00:41:57,680 Speaker 1: He's a tree climbing dude. Man, if there's a tree 766 00:41:57,719 --> 00:42:00,919 Speaker 1: that has any kind of lean to it, I mean, 767 00:42:00,960 --> 00:42:02,720 Speaker 1: he'll go up as high as he can't. What happens 768 00:42:02,760 --> 00:42:04,279 Speaker 1: is they get up there and they can't come down. 769 00:42:04,800 --> 00:42:07,600 Speaker 1: Then they fall. And now do you worry about breaking 770 00:42:07,640 --> 00:42:09,640 Speaker 1: him of it? Clay? Do you try to break him 771 00:42:09,640 --> 00:42:12,160 Speaker 1: of it? You just let him have at it, you know, 772 00:42:13,800 --> 00:42:16,239 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't know. You know, people might say 773 00:42:16,280 --> 00:42:19,680 Speaker 1: you can break them of it, but I don't really 774 00:42:20,000 --> 00:42:21,680 Speaker 1: know how you would do it. I mean, they're just 775 00:42:21,719 --> 00:42:24,840 Speaker 1: so pumped up when they're they've treated this coon. They're 776 00:42:24,920 --> 00:42:29,640 Speaker 1: jumping on the tree, embarking. And so it happens because 777 00:42:29,680 --> 00:42:33,480 Speaker 1: in chasing lions, it presents a whole another problem. Oh yeah, 778 00:42:33,520 --> 00:42:36,399 Speaker 1: you get up the tree, they're gonna get into skirmish 779 00:42:36,800 --> 00:42:38,920 Speaker 1: and that's how we earlier we were talking about when 780 00:42:39,160 --> 00:42:42,759 Speaker 1: dogs hounds get killed by lions. It happens usually when 781 00:42:42,800 --> 00:42:45,640 Speaker 1: a lion is not treed in like what you consider 782 00:42:45,680 --> 00:42:49,239 Speaker 1: us a normal tree twenty feet up and a straight tree. 783 00:42:49,440 --> 00:42:52,440 Speaker 1: It's like a blowdown or something, and it just jumps 784 00:42:52,480 --> 00:42:57,399 Speaker 1: onto a you know, a a trunk that's only five 785 00:42:57,440 --> 00:42:59,600 Speaker 1: six ft off the ground. You know, it's being supported 786 00:42:59,600 --> 00:43:02,440 Speaker 1: by the anches or whatever. And then the dogs, you know, 787 00:43:02,560 --> 00:43:04,759 Speaker 1: bay it for a minute off the ground. But then 788 00:43:04,760 --> 00:43:07,120 Speaker 1: the dogs quickly realize, oh, I can get on the 789 00:43:07,280 --> 00:43:09,680 Speaker 1: end of that tree and run right up to that thing. 790 00:43:09,760 --> 00:43:12,800 Speaker 1: And the dogs have no nothing in their heads says 791 00:43:13,480 --> 00:43:16,319 Speaker 1: that that thing that I'm barking at can kill me, 792 00:43:16,400 --> 00:43:18,239 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, They're they're not thinking that. 793 00:43:18,280 --> 00:43:20,160 Speaker 1: So they go right up to it and they want 794 00:43:20,200 --> 00:43:21,799 Speaker 1: to get closer to it and bark at it and 795 00:43:22,120 --> 00:43:26,000 Speaker 1: gets them in trouble. So yeah, when when I know 796 00:43:26,040 --> 00:43:28,080 Speaker 1: that when Jake's dogs start climbing at all, and it's 797 00:43:28,120 --> 00:43:31,239 Speaker 1: pretty amazing, like not even like grabbing like a cat 798 00:43:31,280 --> 00:43:33,759 Speaker 1: would climb straight up the trunk like these dogs will 799 00:43:33,760 --> 00:43:37,160 Speaker 1: actually go onto a limb, turn go to the next slimb, 800 00:43:37,280 --> 00:43:39,600 Speaker 1: and turn, go to the next slim. Oh yeah, and 801 00:43:39,640 --> 00:43:43,359 Speaker 1: he does not like it at all. And there's yeah, 802 00:43:43,440 --> 00:43:47,520 Speaker 1: they there's there's consequences when they do it. Honest is 803 00:43:47,560 --> 00:43:50,040 Speaker 1: he does he think that he can train them to 804 00:43:50,080 --> 00:43:54,239 Speaker 1: not climb. The guys that I was with in Washington, 805 00:43:54,600 --> 00:43:57,680 Speaker 1: Bart George and his crew, uh they do it as well. 806 00:43:57,800 --> 00:44:01,280 Speaker 1: If the dogs start getting up on the uh tree, 807 00:44:01,320 --> 00:44:04,480 Speaker 1: they they punish him. If you can train them, you 808 00:44:04,560 --> 00:44:07,720 Speaker 1: train them to cut the tree. You trained dog do anything, 809 00:44:07,800 --> 00:44:10,640 Speaker 1: so getting them stay out of tree with no problem. 810 00:44:10,680 --> 00:44:14,000 Speaker 1: You just gotta set up the situation. My comment on 811 00:44:14,040 --> 00:44:17,239 Speaker 1: it is basically, just like a lot of times in 812 00:44:17,320 --> 00:44:19,360 Speaker 1: a tree, you're not there for a long time. It 813 00:44:19,440 --> 00:44:21,359 Speaker 1: may take you a long time to get to the tree. 814 00:44:21,440 --> 00:44:23,880 Speaker 1: So the dogs are they're unattended, not under you know, 815 00:44:24,600 --> 00:44:27,880 Speaker 1: and just that desires watch Puss pushing them up the tree. 816 00:44:28,600 --> 00:44:30,640 Speaker 1: You know. But you need that obedience set up in 817 00:44:30,640 --> 00:44:33,920 Speaker 1: a yard situation. In the training situation, you'd have to 818 00:44:34,000 --> 00:44:36,799 Speaker 1: simulate it as close as you could and correct the dog, 819 00:44:36,840 --> 00:44:38,719 Speaker 1: because you're right, you'd never get there before the dog 820 00:44:38,760 --> 00:44:53,360 Speaker 1: gets there. So yeah, backyard training Yanni's dog. You're just 821 00:44:53,360 --> 00:44:58,160 Speaker 1: talking about mangus, were you? Mm hmm? Um, A long 822 00:44:58,200 --> 00:45:00,920 Speaker 1: time ago, we had Dave Simonette for Trampled by Turtles 823 00:45:00,920 --> 00:45:04,759 Speaker 1: on the show. Mm hmm. Musician, we're talking about how 824 00:45:04,760 --> 00:45:08,960 Speaker 1: we needed a theme song from Mingus. Mingus has his 825 00:45:09,040 --> 00:45:20,960 Speaker 1: own theme song now by Trampled by Turtles, Short and Sweet, 826 00:45:28,200 --> 00:45:31,400 Speaker 1: Short and Sweet, ladies and gentleman does Mingus by Trampled 827 00:45:31,400 --> 00:45:35,920 Speaker 1: by Turtles talk about we're gonna use the we'll use 828 00:45:35,960 --> 00:45:38,480 Speaker 1: ask them what you all be sick of that? Uh, 829 00:45:38,800 --> 00:45:41,239 Speaker 1: Clay do your big apology and explanation about how you 830 00:45:41,280 --> 00:45:46,640 Speaker 1: messed everything up about fox hunting. Yeah, so we we 831 00:45:46,719 --> 00:45:50,600 Speaker 1: talked about, we talked about I was talking about the 832 00:45:51,040 --> 00:45:54,680 Speaker 1: painting on the ceiling in my office and I have 833 00:45:54,719 --> 00:45:59,000 Speaker 1: a painting of an English fox hunt and I said 834 00:45:59,040 --> 00:46:01,399 Speaker 1: that I put it up there because that scene no 835 00:46:01,440 --> 00:46:05,080 Speaker 1: longer exists on the earth, and it's a it's like 836 00:46:05,080 --> 00:46:10,120 Speaker 1: the Sistine Chapel. It's it's a painting overhead. Yeah. So 837 00:46:10,239 --> 00:46:13,200 Speaker 1: all the other paintings and pictures in my office are 838 00:46:13,200 --> 00:46:15,359 Speaker 1: on the walls like a normal one. I put this 839 00:46:15,400 --> 00:46:18,759 Speaker 1: one on the ceiling because my point was, and what 840 00:46:18,840 --> 00:46:21,520 Speaker 1: I tell people when they're in my office, as I say, 841 00:46:21,640 --> 00:46:24,520 Speaker 1: do you see that scene? And it's this beautiful old 842 00:46:24,600 --> 00:46:28,120 Speaker 1: painting of a of a what I presume to be 843 00:46:28,200 --> 00:46:31,640 Speaker 1: an English fox hunt, and I say that no longer 844 00:46:31,719 --> 00:46:33,799 Speaker 1: exists on the earth. And probably in the heat of 845 00:46:33,800 --> 00:46:36,560 Speaker 1: the moment on the podcast the other day, I probably 846 00:46:36,600 --> 00:46:39,840 Speaker 1: said that scene exists nowhere else on the face of 847 00:46:39,840 --> 00:46:43,399 Speaker 1: the earth. That would have been a mistake. Yeah, yeah, 848 00:46:43,520 --> 00:46:47,680 Speaker 1: And so so we had some really good feedback come 849 00:46:47,719 --> 00:46:51,760 Speaker 1: in some people that kind of set the record straight. 850 00:46:51,920 --> 00:46:57,520 Speaker 1: And also, you know, stand by my statement that that 851 00:46:57,680 --> 00:47:01,479 Speaker 1: scene doesn't exist in that warm but here, Steve, here's 852 00:47:01,480 --> 00:47:07,480 Speaker 1: just a quick rundown. So fox hunting became big in Europe, 853 00:47:07,480 --> 00:47:10,480 Speaker 1: and like the fifteen hundreds, Germany was one of the 854 00:47:10,520 --> 00:47:15,319 Speaker 1: first countries in the nineteen thirties that banned it. In 855 00:47:15,520 --> 00:47:20,000 Speaker 1: two thousand two, Scotland banded fox hunting with hounds, and 856 00:47:20,040 --> 00:47:23,720 Speaker 1: then in two thousand five England and Wales banned fox 857 00:47:23,800 --> 00:47:26,880 Speaker 1: hunting with hounds. And it's a pretty complex situation. A 858 00:47:26,880 --> 00:47:29,960 Speaker 1: lot of it had to do with land related issues, 859 00:47:30,000 --> 00:47:33,440 Speaker 1: but it was primarily fueled by anti hunting people just 860 00:47:33,480 --> 00:47:38,080 Speaker 1: saying we don't like people chasing foxes with dogs. So 861 00:47:38,760 --> 00:47:41,080 Speaker 1: in those places though, and I guess this is where 862 00:47:41,080 --> 00:47:46,640 Speaker 1: the clarity comes. They still have simulated fox hunts with 863 00:47:46,880 --> 00:47:54,120 Speaker 1: scent which as a as a American houndsman, I'm not 864 00:47:54,320 --> 00:47:57,960 Speaker 1: counting that as a fox hunt. It's like a Civil 865 00:47:58,000 --> 00:48:03,400 Speaker 1: War reenactment they do with yeah, and so well, and 866 00:48:03,320 --> 00:48:05,439 Speaker 1: and I don't want to take anything away from those 867 00:48:05,480 --> 00:48:09,160 Speaker 1: people for doing that. Yeah, I mean, I I'm not 868 00:48:09,280 --> 00:48:12,319 Speaker 1: cutting them down for having a simulated fox because these 869 00:48:12,320 --> 00:48:14,440 Speaker 1: people hunt on horseback and they have big packs of 870 00:48:14,480 --> 00:48:17,680 Speaker 1: dogs and they do these scent drags through the countryside. 871 00:48:17,680 --> 00:48:20,680 Speaker 1: So I mean, I think that's great. That is a 872 00:48:20,680 --> 00:48:24,960 Speaker 1: far cry from what it was. And so but here's 873 00:48:25,000 --> 00:48:27,920 Speaker 1: where I learned some stuff. Okay, I had several people 874 00:48:27,960 --> 00:48:34,040 Speaker 1: contact me personally in Northern Ireland and in France, real 875 00:48:34,160 --> 00:48:39,799 Speaker 1: fox hunting with hounds, like chasing real fox is still legal. Um. 876 00:48:40,040 --> 00:48:43,319 Speaker 1: And and then I also had a bunch of people say, oh, Clay, 877 00:48:43,360 --> 00:48:46,759 Speaker 1: you're wrong because there's fox in the United States. I 878 00:48:46,840 --> 00:48:48,920 Speaker 1: wasn't talking about fox in the United States. We can 879 00:48:49,000 --> 00:48:50,839 Speaker 1: run all kind of stuff with hounds. I mean, it's 880 00:48:51,000 --> 00:48:53,919 Speaker 1: we live. I mean this, we got some incredible rights 881 00:48:53,920 --> 00:48:56,040 Speaker 1: when it comes to hound hunting in this country still 882 00:48:56,080 --> 00:48:58,640 Speaker 1: to this day. And so I I know people in 883 00:48:58,719 --> 00:49:02,600 Speaker 1: northwest Arkansas that do simulated fox hunts, and it's a 884 00:49:02,680 --> 00:49:05,120 Speaker 1: it's an equestrian thing, you know. I mean they're riding 885 00:49:05,160 --> 00:49:10,040 Speaker 1: horses fast, they've got hounds, they're doing scent drags, and 886 00:49:10,080 --> 00:49:12,800 Speaker 1: there's probably real fox sense going on in the US. 887 00:49:12,880 --> 00:49:15,880 Speaker 1: But I was talking about Europe and my whole idea 888 00:49:16,040 --> 00:49:19,239 Speaker 1: with you know, just this kind of guarding the gate 889 00:49:19,320 --> 00:49:23,240 Speaker 1: thing is that they want to take this stuff away 890 00:49:23,239 --> 00:49:25,040 Speaker 1: from us, and we can look at some of these 891 00:49:25,080 --> 00:49:27,840 Speaker 1: places where they have and so my painting still is 892 00:49:27,920 --> 00:49:33,520 Speaker 1: on the ceiling. So yeah, I like pugnacious. At the 893 00:49:33,600 --> 00:49:37,160 Speaker 1: very end, Clay nucom other people rolling in saying they 894 00:49:37,160 --> 00:49:40,120 Speaker 1: were mad at me about saying that fox hunters aren't hunters. 895 00:49:40,400 --> 00:49:44,120 Speaker 1: I don't know. Yeah, He's like, oh, we're out there 896 00:49:44,160 --> 00:49:46,920 Speaker 1: for having a good time, loving nature all that. Another 897 00:49:46,960 --> 00:49:51,200 Speaker 1: guy rolled in. He says he hunts at a place 898 00:49:51,280 --> 00:49:53,359 Speaker 1: now and then these fox hunters they dragged that little 899 00:49:53,360 --> 00:49:55,279 Speaker 1: smell through the woods and they all come riding after it. 900 00:49:56,400 --> 00:49:57,840 Speaker 1: He said, you'll, he'll be out in the woods. He 901 00:49:57,920 --> 00:49:59,680 Speaker 1: thought about being out in his tree stand. You'll, you'll 902 00:49:59,680 --> 00:50:02,520 Speaker 1: be all wouldn't have forty hounds come through making a racket, 903 00:50:02,680 --> 00:50:05,600 Speaker 1: followed by dozens of people on horseback dressed up in 904 00:50:05,600 --> 00:50:08,200 Speaker 1: the red and green coats like the old English hunter's war. 905 00:50:08,960 --> 00:50:10,719 Speaker 1: It's quite something. You're out hunting in the woods, and 906 00:50:10,760 --> 00:50:13,600 Speaker 1: that rolls through. As an avid hunter, I can tell 907 00:50:13,600 --> 00:50:15,719 Speaker 1: you that the people involved in this fox hunt are 908 00:50:15,760 --> 00:50:19,000 Speaker 1: so unrelated to nature and real hunting that it's insulted 909 00:50:19,040 --> 00:50:22,440 Speaker 1: to call the fox hunt hunt. Obviously there's no real fox, 910 00:50:22,920 --> 00:50:25,440 Speaker 1: but the people this sport attracts are also the last 911 00:50:25,440 --> 00:50:27,120 Speaker 1: people that would ever know what to do with the 912 00:50:27,160 --> 00:50:30,279 Speaker 1: real fox, or any wild game for that matter. It's 913 00:50:30,320 --> 00:50:33,680 Speaker 1: all just a social status affair. Then you're pipe and 914 00:50:33,719 --> 00:50:36,560 Speaker 1: smoke it. Brodie Henderson, you know, my mom was into 915 00:50:36,600 --> 00:50:39,360 Speaker 1: horses and she belonged to what was called a hunt 916 00:50:39,440 --> 00:50:42,799 Speaker 1: and Saddle club. They didn't do any hunting there. I 917 00:50:42,800 --> 00:50:48,160 Speaker 1: think it's like just some traditional kind of connection, you know. 918 00:50:48,239 --> 00:50:52,000 Speaker 1: I think I hear what that guy's saying, but I don't. 919 00:50:52,120 --> 00:50:54,439 Speaker 1: I mean, these people are on our side, I mean, 920 00:50:54,480 --> 00:50:57,399 Speaker 1: if they, I mean, yeah, we can say. I think 921 00:50:57,440 --> 00:51:00,360 Speaker 1: it's a pretty big stereotype. I bet there's some legit 922 00:51:00,440 --> 00:51:03,439 Speaker 1: folks and those bunches. Well, he points out that what 923 00:51:03,600 --> 00:51:05,640 Speaker 1: one of these One of these fellers points out, not 924 00:51:05,719 --> 00:51:10,200 Speaker 1: that guy, but another feller points out that we share enemies, right, 925 00:51:10,560 --> 00:51:19,080 Speaker 1: radical animal rights community. Yeah, suburban sprawl habitat, having the 926 00:51:19,239 --> 00:51:23,640 Speaker 1: your the rules of your life dictated by people who 927 00:51:24,160 --> 00:51:26,480 Speaker 1: make stereotypes about you and don't understand what it is 928 00:51:26,600 --> 00:51:28,160 Speaker 1: exactly that you do, but they know you. They don't 929 00:51:28,160 --> 00:51:32,160 Speaker 1: want you to do it. So you're bound together by 930 00:51:32,200 --> 00:51:34,880 Speaker 1: your enemies. But I'll point out, I don't want to 931 00:51:34,880 --> 00:51:38,000 Speaker 1: do that. I was gonna say, but I won't. I 932 00:51:38,040 --> 00:51:39,799 Speaker 1: wasn't gonna say, but I shouldn't. I was gonna point 933 00:51:39,840 --> 00:51:41,520 Speaker 1: out how we were friends with the Rooskis against the 934 00:51:41,560 --> 00:51:47,040 Speaker 1: Germans that got us. But that wouldn't be appropriate. It 935 00:51:47,080 --> 00:51:49,799 Speaker 1: wouldn't even be a good metaphor. But Patton wanted to 936 00:51:49,800 --> 00:51:52,960 Speaker 1: go on and get them. Second Patton and my old man, 937 00:51:53,480 --> 00:51:56,080 Speaker 1: they were ready to keep going east. Yeah, my old 938 00:51:56,080 --> 00:51:57,920 Speaker 1: man thought we were halfway done with that war when 939 00:51:57,920 --> 00:52:01,800 Speaker 1: we quit. Um Clay, I'm with you. I think we 940 00:52:01,800 --> 00:52:05,040 Speaker 1: should not generalize, you know, just off this one email 941 00:52:05,239 --> 00:52:09,880 Speaker 1: that all these mounted fox hunters are not real outdoors folks, 942 00:52:09,920 --> 00:52:11,920 Speaker 1: because I think, like you said, there's probably quite a 943 00:52:11,960 --> 00:52:16,520 Speaker 1: few that are. Yeah, i'd like to see the guy 944 00:52:16,560 --> 00:52:19,640 Speaker 1: that wrote dead email ride dead Horse. There you go. 945 00:52:20,120 --> 00:52:26,799 Speaker 1: That's interesting. Good point, Ronnie, all right, Um, onto being 946 00:52:27,040 --> 00:52:33,080 Speaker 1: better outdoors folks with our weapons. I wish I can remember. 947 00:52:33,520 --> 00:52:36,520 Speaker 1: Oh he says it right here. On episode to fifty 948 00:52:36,560 --> 00:52:39,240 Speaker 1: two the podcast, Steve was talking about the most common 949 00:52:39,280 --> 00:52:44,000 Speaker 1: firearm related injury was bird hunting. Um he and this 950 00:52:44,040 --> 00:52:48,960 Speaker 1: guy agrees with him. He is a shooting instructor in 951 00:52:49,000 --> 00:52:53,320 Speaker 1: the United States Coast Guard counter terrorism teams and teaches 952 00:52:53,400 --> 00:53:00,560 Speaker 1: advanced marksmanship. UM. He wanted rite in to say that 953 00:53:01,160 --> 00:53:03,399 Speaker 1: some of the stuff that he teaches in that sort 954 00:53:03,440 --> 00:53:08,920 Speaker 1: of space can be you used for us as safety measures, 955 00:53:09,280 --> 00:53:12,480 Speaker 1: you know, as hunters out in the field, and uh, 956 00:53:12,600 --> 00:53:15,360 Speaker 1: just with some other projects we've been working on. UM, 957 00:53:15,440 --> 00:53:17,879 Speaker 1: you know, speaking of people getting shot or getting closest shot, 958 00:53:17,920 --> 00:53:21,439 Speaker 1: it's really kind of hits home right now. But there's 959 00:53:21,480 --> 00:53:24,960 Speaker 1: a thing that they teach when they shoot, when they 960 00:53:25,040 --> 00:53:27,719 Speaker 1: go into close quarters combat, and that's basically when they 961 00:53:27,719 --> 00:53:31,719 Speaker 1: have to start engaging multiple targets, they teach them to 962 00:53:32,040 --> 00:53:37,200 Speaker 1: move their eyes first then the gun. That being so 963 00:53:37,760 --> 00:53:40,320 Speaker 1: one is for safety, right, because that way your eyes 964 00:53:40,320 --> 00:53:43,320 Speaker 1: and brain can look at the target and go yes, 965 00:53:43,560 --> 00:53:45,759 Speaker 1: that is a threat. I need to, you know, get 966 00:53:45,880 --> 00:53:48,080 Speaker 1: rid of it because you can imagine close quarters. They 967 00:53:48,160 --> 00:53:50,840 Speaker 1: got a bunch of their team members in there. It 968 00:53:50,880 --> 00:53:52,680 Speaker 1: can be dark, it's in a house. You gotta be 969 00:53:52,760 --> 00:53:56,480 Speaker 1: very careful about what direction you're shooting at where you're shooting, 970 00:53:56,840 --> 00:53:58,319 Speaker 1: just like we do when we're out in the field, 971 00:53:58,560 --> 00:54:00,880 Speaker 1: you know, up and bird hunting and there's whatever, ten 972 00:54:01,000 --> 00:54:07,160 Speaker 1: people on a pheasant hunt. Um. And another advantage of 973 00:54:07,200 --> 00:54:09,719 Speaker 1: that is he saying, is that it actually makes you 974 00:54:09,960 --> 00:54:13,080 Speaker 1: faster at shooting. A lot of people think that you 975 00:54:13,080 --> 00:54:16,400 Speaker 1: want to look over or swing to your target with 976 00:54:16,480 --> 00:54:19,600 Speaker 1: your gun, but if you do that, you will actually 977 00:54:19,760 --> 00:54:22,879 Speaker 1: pass over the target and then have to come back 978 00:54:22,920 --> 00:54:25,719 Speaker 1: and correct. Whereas if you go there first with your 979 00:54:25,719 --> 00:54:29,799 Speaker 1: eyes lock on, then bring your target too, then bring 980 00:54:29,800 --> 00:54:33,840 Speaker 1: your pistol or rifle or shot and whatever to the target. 981 00:54:34,200 --> 00:54:36,839 Speaker 1: You'll be faster doing it that way. You know what's 982 00:54:36,920 --> 00:54:43,960 Speaker 1: interesting parallel there, uh is when you take out beginner 983 00:54:44,080 --> 00:54:48,799 Speaker 1: hunters who aren't of customers shooting sculpt rifles, they have 984 00:54:48,840 --> 00:54:54,640 Speaker 1: a very difficult time finding the d or whatever acquiring 985 00:54:54,640 --> 00:55:01,120 Speaker 1: the target because they are looking through the scope, trying 986 00:55:01,160 --> 00:55:04,920 Speaker 1: to get oriented through the scope and then searching for 987 00:55:05,000 --> 00:55:08,719 Speaker 1: the thing. Once you get the knack of it, your 988 00:55:08,719 --> 00:55:13,480 Speaker 1: eye never leaves the thing, the thing being your target, 989 00:55:13,480 --> 00:55:15,799 Speaker 1: your target. You're looking at a deer on the hillside 990 00:55:15,920 --> 00:55:17,960 Speaker 1: and you bring your rifle up. You don't then look 991 00:55:18,040 --> 00:55:21,560 Speaker 1: for it. It's just there, like your eyes on it, 992 00:55:22,000 --> 00:55:24,560 Speaker 1: and everything is. The scope is coming to your eye, 993 00:55:24,640 --> 00:55:26,880 Speaker 1: which is already trained on the thing. It's hard to do, 994 00:55:26,920 --> 00:55:28,839 Speaker 1: but you just figure it out over time. You don't 995 00:55:28,880 --> 00:55:30,200 Speaker 1: go like, Okay, I look through the scope, then I'll 996 00:55:30,200 --> 00:55:32,040 Speaker 1: start staring all over the place trying to find the thing. 997 00:55:32,239 --> 00:55:36,719 Speaker 1: It's seamless i first, but you know he relates it 998 00:55:36,800 --> 00:55:39,000 Speaker 1: to like getting tunnel vision, and you know you're getting 999 00:55:39,040 --> 00:55:42,040 Speaker 1: real Like we always talked about the factor of lust 1000 00:55:42,520 --> 00:55:45,040 Speaker 1: and wanting to kill something and wanting to be successful 1001 00:55:45,080 --> 00:55:47,840 Speaker 1: as a hunter. And you know, you see the pheasant 1002 00:55:47,920 --> 00:55:52,000 Speaker 1: flush and you're so focused on that that you don't 1003 00:55:52,040 --> 00:55:55,720 Speaker 1: see your buddy that's in the line of fire. Right happens? 1004 00:55:56,320 --> 00:55:58,640 Speaker 1: It does happen? Does happen? I mean A really good 1005 00:55:58,680 --> 00:56:01,959 Speaker 1: example is if you shoot up like old old style 1006 00:56:02,000 --> 00:56:06,719 Speaker 1: South Dakota blockers flankers and pushers. The flankers are only 1007 00:56:06,719 --> 00:56:08,839 Speaker 1: on the outside of the field in case a bird 1008 00:56:08,880 --> 00:56:12,600 Speaker 1: peels out. But sometimes right when it starts, these birds 1009 00:56:12,600 --> 00:56:14,560 Speaker 1: start coming up in the middle and they're like, well, 1010 00:56:14,560 --> 00:56:17,560 Speaker 1: there's nobody here, and they're shooting the other flanker or 1011 00:56:17,600 --> 00:56:19,439 Speaker 1: putting shot on him. And I've seen a guy get 1012 00:56:19,600 --> 00:56:22,360 Speaker 1: taken right square and a lip right here flanking the 1013 00:56:22,400 --> 00:56:24,480 Speaker 1: field and he says, I'm not flanking anymore this week. 1014 00:56:26,040 --> 00:56:28,160 Speaker 1: And it, I mean, it was pretty it was. We 1015 00:56:28,160 --> 00:56:29,600 Speaker 1: had to get it out. We had to get the 1016 00:56:31,160 --> 00:56:40,239 Speaker 1: yeah mingus um, okay, more about dogs. While back, I 1017 00:56:40,239 --> 00:56:42,959 Speaker 1: don't know what episode it was that we were talking 1018 00:56:43,000 --> 00:56:45,640 Speaker 1: about blood tracking dogs and about how it's becoming a 1019 00:56:45,760 --> 00:56:49,040 Speaker 1: thing and more and more, states um. And a fellow 1020 00:56:49,080 --> 00:56:52,360 Speaker 1: rode in uh he he wasn't a member, he's not 1021 00:56:52,400 --> 00:56:54,160 Speaker 1: a member of the the United Blood Trackers, but he was 1022 00:56:54,200 --> 00:56:57,879 Speaker 1: saying that there's a lot of Facebook based groups that 1023 00:56:58,160 --> 00:57:02,880 Speaker 1: provide volunteer tracking service. Is two Hunters, And what was 1024 00:57:03,000 --> 00:57:09,719 Speaker 1: interesting is that very high success rates for for these 1025 00:57:09,800 --> 00:57:13,759 Speaker 1: dogs to find wounded dear that you might not find later. 1026 00:57:14,400 --> 00:57:21,200 Speaker 1: What kind of numbers did they say in seventeen they 1027 00:57:21,240 --> 00:57:26,720 Speaker 1: went on five seven tracks, had two seven total recoveries. 1028 00:57:27,280 --> 00:57:30,320 Speaker 1: Just makes for a success rate of fifty four point four. 1029 00:57:31,240 --> 00:57:32,959 Speaker 1: You know not want to know here, and it would 1030 00:57:32,960 --> 00:57:39,000 Speaker 1: be really important to this is is that after like, 1031 00:57:40,200 --> 00:57:47,440 Speaker 1: is that after you failed manually tracking? I would say typically, well, 1032 00:57:47,440 --> 00:57:49,200 Speaker 1: you'd have to know that because if you're just showing 1033 00:57:49,280 --> 00:57:51,200 Speaker 1: up off out of the gate with a dog, that 1034 00:57:51,200 --> 00:57:53,439 Speaker 1: doesn't impress me at all. I'll bet you though some 1035 00:57:53,480 --> 00:57:56,240 Speaker 1: people they're shooting one in the evening right at dark, 1036 00:57:56,320 --> 00:58:00,440 Speaker 1: they may just call the dog because we'll normal trailing. 1037 00:58:00,640 --> 00:58:06,040 Speaker 1: I mean normal trailing is yeah, you know high if 1038 00:58:06,080 --> 00:58:10,880 Speaker 1: but if if that's you've exhausted your manual tracking abilities 1039 00:58:11,200 --> 00:58:15,280 Speaker 1: and then you're recovering of what couldn't have been recovered otherwise, 1040 00:58:15,520 --> 00:58:18,480 Speaker 1: that's impressive. Yeah. I mean my only exposure to this 1041 00:58:18,640 --> 00:58:22,360 Speaker 1: was in Idaho. They used a woman shot a bear 1042 00:58:22,440 --> 00:58:27,400 Speaker 1: right at dark. It was raining um and they brought 1043 00:58:27,520 --> 00:58:30,000 Speaker 1: in a teeny little blood tracking dog. That bear had 1044 00:58:30,040 --> 00:58:33,040 Speaker 1: only gone a hundred yards. I don't think we would 1045 00:58:33,040 --> 00:58:35,960 Speaker 1: have ever found it. It was buried in the brush. 1046 00:58:36,080 --> 00:58:38,760 Speaker 1: We couldn't see any blood. So it was a pretty 1047 00:58:38,760 --> 00:58:41,080 Speaker 1: impressive and it it was quick. It was a couple 1048 00:58:41,080 --> 00:58:43,480 Speaker 1: of minutes that dog found. Hey, don't get me wrong, man, 1049 00:58:43,560 --> 00:58:45,880 Speaker 1: I'm not down on it. I think that they should 1050 00:58:46,600 --> 00:58:50,080 Speaker 1: loosen whatever restrictions are in place and make it that 1051 00:58:50,280 --> 00:58:52,640 Speaker 1: it's just the thing. I wish that, like every community 1052 00:58:52,680 --> 00:58:55,200 Speaker 1: had a community to help people with recovery. I'm not 1053 00:58:55,240 --> 00:58:58,640 Speaker 1: down on it. I'm saying if if you could up, 1054 00:58:58,880 --> 00:59:01,840 Speaker 1: if after you exhausted possibilities and you brought a dog 1055 00:59:01,880 --> 00:59:06,080 Speaker 1: and then had a fifty of recovering, that's phenomenal. Yeah, 1056 00:59:06,240 --> 00:59:08,320 Speaker 1: I'd say that's more of the rule of the rule. 1057 00:59:08,440 --> 00:59:11,400 Speaker 1: I've interviewed three three trackers and they're coming into after 1058 00:59:11,440 --> 00:59:15,120 Speaker 1: they can't find it. Very rare. Would they just go 1059 00:59:15,240 --> 00:59:17,640 Speaker 1: in without any intel, just say hey, I shot, just 1060 00:59:17,680 --> 00:59:19,880 Speaker 1: come out with me. But would you say, you know, 1061 00:59:20,600 --> 00:59:23,360 Speaker 1: time we could find it. So it's almost always after 1062 00:59:23,800 --> 00:59:27,800 Speaker 1: a bad weather condition or inability to find anything. No 1063 00:59:28,880 --> 00:59:31,440 Speaker 1: blood thing always gets them. So when they get called in, 1064 00:59:31,680 --> 00:59:34,200 Speaker 1: it's because usually of a lack of blood. Most people 1065 00:59:34,280 --> 00:59:36,120 Speaker 1: see blood that keep going, they don't, They don't look 1066 00:59:36,120 --> 00:59:39,440 Speaker 1: for help. And the dogs are able to now track 1067 00:59:39,560 --> 00:59:42,560 Speaker 1: from the dearest tarso gland, which is just like our 1068 00:59:42,600 --> 00:59:44,960 Speaker 1: thumb print, Like the FBI is not gonna mistake your 1069 00:59:45,000 --> 00:59:48,080 Speaker 1: thumb print for mine. A dog, well trained dogs not 1070 00:59:48,080 --> 00:59:52,000 Speaker 1: gonna I'm not gonna mistake that tarso gland smell. It's 1071 00:59:52,120 --> 00:59:55,320 Speaker 1: that dear's individual scent. I'm on that. I'm I'm on 1072 00:59:55,400 --> 00:59:58,040 Speaker 1: Bobby Ranilla and I'm chasing him across as air a 1073 00:59:58,040 --> 01:00:00,560 Speaker 1: lot farm and I'll find him. It's funny mentioned because 1074 01:00:00,560 --> 01:00:02,840 Speaker 1: I got a nephew name Bobby, were knowing, I knew that. 1075 01:00:05,080 --> 01:00:07,800 Speaker 1: The other thing that would affect that statistic is how 1076 01:00:07,840 --> 01:00:14,400 Speaker 1: many of those deer didn't die? Like, so you got there. Yeah, 1077 01:00:14,400 --> 01:00:18,240 Speaker 1: so there's some percentage of those unrecovered deer that didn't die, 1078 01:00:18,280 --> 01:00:20,200 Speaker 1: which I would think would be pretty high. I think 1079 01:00:20,240 --> 01:00:23,920 Speaker 1: a lot of deers survive, you know what people you know, 1080 01:00:24,000 --> 01:00:27,400 Speaker 1: just flesh wounds, and so that makes it even a 1081 01:00:27,480 --> 01:00:31,880 Speaker 1: higher percentage of dead deer that are recovered. And actually, 1082 01:00:31,880 --> 01:00:36,560 Speaker 1: as they've got numbers all the way through UH and 1083 01:00:36,640 --> 01:00:40,080 Speaker 1: the percentages are are every year, it seems a steadily 1084 01:00:40,120 --> 01:00:49,000 Speaker 1: increase Like success straight got up to sixty six mhm. Okay, yeah, 1085 01:00:49,360 --> 01:00:53,320 Speaker 1: ready take it away. Where would you go to recon 1086 01:00:53,640 --> 01:00:58,000 Speaker 1: fighting coons and dogs and barrels or whatever? I said, Well, okay, 1087 01:00:57,840 --> 01:01:00,000 Speaker 1: I listened. Believe it or not, I listened to your podcast. 1088 01:01:00,080 --> 01:01:02,360 Speaker 1: Is quite often and every once in a while I 1089 01:01:02,400 --> 01:01:04,840 Speaker 1: hear you tell a story and I just cringe because 1090 01:01:04,840 --> 01:01:09,240 Speaker 1: it came from you. I know where, I know the source, 1091 01:01:10,240 --> 01:01:12,480 Speaker 1: but I know for a fact that I did not 1092 01:01:12,720 --> 01:01:15,880 Speaker 1: say it like that. But one of the reasons is 1093 01:01:16,520 --> 01:01:19,160 Speaker 1: when I sit with you anywhere, and this has been 1094 01:01:19,200 --> 01:01:21,520 Speaker 1: since the day you worked for me an eighteen years old, 1095 01:01:21,880 --> 01:01:24,640 Speaker 1: you like to engage and ask questions like I could 1096 01:01:24,640 --> 01:01:27,120 Speaker 1: start telling a story and go whoa wait a minute, wait, 1097 01:01:27,280 --> 01:01:31,360 Speaker 1: so this guy? So you remember things and I was 1098 01:01:31,400 --> 01:01:34,440 Speaker 1: talking about and Clay, Clay, you got to jump in 1099 01:01:34,480 --> 01:01:37,680 Speaker 1: on this because you're the coon hunter. Um. Friends of 1100 01:01:37,720 --> 01:01:40,000 Speaker 1: mine told me this story that if you don't want 1101 01:01:40,040 --> 01:01:43,520 Speaker 1: your dog chasing deer, you put the coon dog in 1102 01:01:43,560 --> 01:01:46,160 Speaker 1: a barrel with a bunch of deer legs and roll 1103 01:01:46,240 --> 01:01:49,840 Speaker 1: it down a hill. Now, barbaric, silly, local legend, whatever 1104 01:01:49,880 --> 01:01:52,880 Speaker 1: it is. I started googling this morning and there's a 1105 01:01:52,920 --> 01:01:55,840 Speaker 1: guy who uses doe urine in a in a cup 1106 01:01:56,240 --> 01:01:58,440 Speaker 1: on an electric fence and when the dogs going to 1107 01:01:58,520 --> 01:02:01,720 Speaker 1: smell the dog urine, the dough year and the dog 1108 01:02:01,760 --> 01:02:05,640 Speaker 1: gets a shock from the electric fences. Great, what, Clay, 1109 01:02:05,720 --> 01:02:08,360 Speaker 1: what what have you heard for old legends of breaking 1110 01:02:08,400 --> 01:02:12,120 Speaker 1: them from tress. They call it chasing trash. Well, if 1111 01:02:12,160 --> 01:02:15,200 Speaker 1: Clay doesn't have any, I got it. I've got one. 1112 01:02:15,360 --> 01:02:19,200 Speaker 1: Let's hear it. Go ahead. You know I don't have 1113 01:02:19,280 --> 01:02:23,480 Speaker 1: anything beyond that. I mean the real world, like houndsman 1114 01:02:24,000 --> 01:02:28,040 Speaker 1: typically don't or at least a brand I'm around. Don't 1115 01:02:28,040 --> 01:02:30,360 Speaker 1: buy into that kind of stuff. It's a lot more natural. 1116 01:02:30,720 --> 01:02:34,480 Speaker 1: There's a lot of really pretty easy ways to break right, right. 1117 01:02:34,840 --> 01:02:36,760 Speaker 1: I don't even know if whatever happened, right, I just 1118 01:02:37,120 --> 01:02:39,960 Speaker 1: I just know, guys, I've heard of that same one 1119 01:02:40,640 --> 01:02:44,800 Speaker 1: Ronnie about you know dough y'arin electric fans. Well, I 1120 01:02:44,840 --> 01:02:47,640 Speaker 1: don't have anything, right, let me tell you one here. 1121 01:02:48,240 --> 01:02:52,280 Speaker 1: It would work to keep the dog out of barrels. Though, dogs, 1122 01:02:52,440 --> 01:02:55,040 Speaker 1: you don't even worry about me chasing barrels. Yeah, never 1123 01:02:55,040 --> 01:02:57,200 Speaker 1: gonna happen again. I see a barrel, I go the 1124 01:02:57,280 --> 01:03:01,360 Speaker 1: other way too, Okay, from this same guys, I don't 1125 01:03:01,360 --> 01:03:04,720 Speaker 1: want to see who they are from way back, the 1126 01:03:04,800 --> 01:03:07,800 Speaker 1: same guys that you came away with the story about 1127 01:03:07,840 --> 01:03:09,480 Speaker 1: you fill up a barrel full of deer legs and 1128 01:03:09,600 --> 01:03:14,120 Speaker 1: rolling down the hill. And I was unsettled by this 1129 01:03:14,720 --> 01:03:17,400 Speaker 1: when I heard it from them, back when nothing would 1130 01:03:17,480 --> 01:03:20,720 Speaker 1: unsettled me, but I was unsettled by this. They would 1131 01:03:20,720 --> 01:03:22,880 Speaker 1: also say that when they had one of their dogs 1132 01:03:23,680 --> 01:03:26,520 Speaker 1: kill a fawn, they said, what you do is you 1133 01:03:26,720 --> 01:03:29,720 Speaker 1: hang the dog up in a tree by its collar 1134 01:03:30,480 --> 01:03:34,320 Speaker 1: and whoop it with the fawn. That is brutal. Well, 1135 01:03:34,640 --> 01:03:36,840 Speaker 1: and I later thought that can't be true. We had 1136 01:03:36,840 --> 01:03:38,840 Speaker 1: a guy said I didn't put it on Instagram because 1137 01:03:38,840 --> 01:03:41,040 Speaker 1: it was too graphic. We had a guy send us 1138 01:03:41,040 --> 01:03:44,080 Speaker 1: in a picture. He was very upset by it. It 1139 01:03:44,200 --> 01:03:46,560 Speaker 1: was like a high test collar and a high test lead, 1140 01:03:46,640 --> 01:03:50,240 Speaker 1: like the kind houndsman news, like those bright orange, real 1141 01:03:50,320 --> 01:03:56,200 Speaker 1: heavy freaking collars hanging from a tree, and underneath that 1142 01:03:56,280 --> 01:04:00,840 Speaker 1: collar was a stack of dog bones, telling you what. 1143 01:04:00,920 --> 01:04:02,840 Speaker 1: And he thought he's a hunter. He found it. He's like, 1144 01:04:02,880 --> 01:04:06,080 Speaker 1: this is insane. No one knows what happened at night. 1145 01:04:08,160 --> 01:04:12,960 Speaker 1: I don't know, No, I don't know. Bad apples for sure. 1146 01:04:13,360 --> 01:04:16,480 Speaker 1: I'm I don't know what happened that night, but I'm 1147 01:04:16,560 --> 01:04:19,320 Speaker 1: assuming it's condemnable. But I'm just saying, like I heard 1148 01:04:19,400 --> 01:04:22,000 Speaker 1: that a long time ago. And we're and you know, 1149 01:04:22,120 --> 01:04:26,360 Speaker 1: we're talking about like, well, people us do a lot 1150 01:04:26,400 --> 01:04:29,000 Speaker 1: of things that they shouldn't do. Right right, Well you 1151 01:04:29,040 --> 01:04:33,080 Speaker 1: said you, Oh mine wasn't. My dad used to uh, 1152 01:04:33,240 --> 01:04:35,760 Speaker 1: his this is for you personally or no dog, No, 1153 01:04:35,960 --> 01:04:38,160 Speaker 1: his his bird dog. He was a gross center back 1154 01:04:38,160 --> 01:04:41,120 Speaker 1: when Pennsylvania used to have grouse, and that dog would 1155 01:04:41,120 --> 01:04:44,640 Speaker 1: occasionally chase deer and it was nothing as bad as 1156 01:04:44,800 --> 01:04:47,680 Speaker 1: what we've already talked about. But he'd hang a piece 1157 01:04:47,720 --> 01:04:51,000 Speaker 1: of deer hide soaked in and dough yearn on that 1158 01:04:51,040 --> 01:04:54,960 Speaker 1: dog's collar. I have no idea if it like to 1159 01:04:55,000 --> 01:04:57,040 Speaker 1: make it sick of it. Yeah, yeah, it's just he 1160 01:04:57,120 --> 01:04:59,200 Speaker 1: did it. Who knows if. I don't know if it worked, 1161 01:04:59,240 --> 01:05:01,840 Speaker 1: but that was something he still talks about doing that 1162 01:05:01,880 --> 01:05:04,560 Speaker 1: to this day. I've had guys telling me about trying 1163 01:05:04,600 --> 01:05:07,640 Speaker 1: a skunk hide onto a dog to make the dog 1164 01:05:07,680 --> 01:05:09,720 Speaker 1: get sick of skunk hide smell, or just get so 1165 01:05:09,920 --> 01:05:11,960 Speaker 1: used to it they don't pay any attention to it. 1166 01:05:12,000 --> 01:05:14,840 Speaker 1: I don't know. You know what's funny about you telling 1167 01:05:15,000 --> 01:05:17,439 Speaker 1: how I tell your stories and get him a little 1168 01:05:17,480 --> 01:05:19,560 Speaker 1: as Yet, there's a I can't tell the story because 1169 01:05:19,560 --> 01:05:22,400 Speaker 1: it's very very sensitive material. I could do it if 1170 01:05:22,400 --> 01:05:26,080 Speaker 1: I took my time, very sensitive material. But Ronnie had 1171 01:05:26,120 --> 01:05:30,040 Speaker 1: a story that happened to him I told my brother 1172 01:05:31,040 --> 01:05:34,200 Speaker 1: the story about what happened to Ronnie. A couple of 1173 01:05:34,240 --> 01:05:37,960 Speaker 1: years go by, he's drunk and he's telling Ronnie's story 1174 01:05:38,120 --> 01:05:41,600 Speaker 1: about what happened to me. And Ronnie's halfway through the stories, like, 1175 01:05:41,720 --> 01:05:46,000 Speaker 1: wait a minute, that that's my story. That always happens 1176 01:05:46,000 --> 01:05:54,520 Speaker 1: at the fish check. Uh? Where were we? Keep going around? Well, 1177 01:05:54,560 --> 01:05:58,800 Speaker 1: where are we at? Oh? As far as the scandal, 1178 01:05:58,880 --> 01:06:06,320 Speaker 1: So it's like the Ukraine scandal. There there is in America. 1179 01:06:06,520 --> 01:06:10,720 Speaker 1: There are sporting dog groups, right, individual breed groups. One 1180 01:06:10,800 --> 01:06:14,520 Speaker 1: is Deutsch Drathar Deutsch Kurtzhar, which is a German short hair, 1181 01:06:14,600 --> 01:06:17,919 Speaker 1: German wire hair, and there's other breed clubs that they 1182 01:06:18,200 --> 01:06:21,600 Speaker 1: hold to the standards of the European testing system, which 1183 01:06:21,640 --> 01:06:24,560 Speaker 1: is what NAVDA it's kind of based on. Explain NAVDA 1184 01:06:24,600 --> 01:06:27,760 Speaker 1: real quick well. Navda's North American Versatile Hunting Dog Association. 1185 01:06:28,480 --> 01:06:31,480 Speaker 1: And what we're looking for is a well rounded dog 1186 01:06:31,560 --> 01:06:33,960 Speaker 1: that does good work before and after the shot on 1187 01:06:34,120 --> 01:06:38,200 Speaker 1: land and on water. Like and you're a judge for NAVDA, right, Yeah, 1188 01:06:38,320 --> 01:06:42,840 Speaker 1: I've been judging twenty years for him, and so that's 1189 01:06:42,840 --> 01:06:46,760 Speaker 1: what we're looking for. But in the European test and 1190 01:06:46,800 --> 01:06:49,000 Speaker 1: I can't. Actually I did call a friend when I 1191 01:06:49,040 --> 01:06:50,520 Speaker 1: knew I was coming on. I did call a friend 1192 01:06:50,520 --> 01:06:54,600 Speaker 1: in Germany. And what they used to do at least 1193 01:06:54,600 --> 01:06:56,760 Speaker 1: this is my understanding. Somebody can write in and straighten 1194 01:06:56,760 --> 01:06:59,120 Speaker 1: it all out and your German and I'm beam with 1195 01:06:59,120 --> 01:07:01,880 Speaker 1: an um lot over the but we dropped doom lot. 1196 01:07:02,320 --> 01:07:09,280 Speaker 1: It's actually been um anyway. So during a test they 1197 01:07:09,280 --> 01:07:12,840 Speaker 1: went they may not have a let's say, what they 1198 01:07:12,840 --> 01:07:14,720 Speaker 1: don't have. What's a version of a raccoon in Europe 1199 01:07:14,800 --> 01:07:21,480 Speaker 1: um badgers. There a European raccoon, the European badger. So 1200 01:07:21,600 --> 01:07:24,320 Speaker 1: the dogs, because the dogs are always not the badgers 1201 01:07:24,320 --> 01:07:26,640 Speaker 1: and raccoons are like the same thing, but they're they're 1202 01:07:26,680 --> 01:07:29,640 Speaker 1: a geating bird eating ground eating critters that sure do 1203 01:07:29,640 --> 01:07:32,280 Speaker 1: you want to get rid of. So, because in Europe 1204 01:07:32,320 --> 01:07:35,280 Speaker 1: everything is on private ground, they wanted to keep the 1205 01:07:35,320 --> 01:07:38,280 Speaker 1: grounds as pristine as possible for the ground nesting birds 1206 01:07:38,280 --> 01:07:40,200 Speaker 1: in the rabbits, which are the game that they're hunting. 1207 01:07:40,640 --> 01:07:43,560 Speaker 1: So the dogs were always expected to dispatch any kind 1208 01:07:43,600 --> 01:07:46,640 Speaker 1: of vermin, whatever, whatever they could catch in the course 1209 01:07:46,640 --> 01:07:49,120 Speaker 1: of a day. That if he came across the groundhog, 1210 01:07:49,280 --> 01:07:52,040 Speaker 1: if he came across a badger came across the raccoon 1211 01:07:52,120 --> 01:07:57,080 Speaker 1: skunk kill it eliminate the competition, eliminate everything so the 1212 01:07:57,160 --> 01:08:00,440 Speaker 1: hunter can get something with his shotgun. So part of 1213 01:08:00,480 --> 01:08:03,440 Speaker 1: their testing format on a test day, there's no way 1214 01:08:03,440 --> 01:08:06,160 Speaker 1: you could guarantee like you're going to run into a 1215 01:08:06,240 --> 01:08:10,040 Speaker 1: raccoon on a test day. They but what they would do. 1216 01:08:10,400 --> 01:08:13,760 Speaker 1: There's a breed, a breed warden who also does the 1217 01:08:13,800 --> 01:08:16,320 Speaker 1: confirmation of the dog and make sure that this dog 1218 01:08:16,360 --> 01:08:18,000 Speaker 1: should be bred to that dog. It's kind of like 1219 01:08:18,360 --> 01:08:23,120 Speaker 1: that old school arranged marriages. They get very concerned with 1220 01:08:23,600 --> 01:08:25,559 Speaker 1: the coat on that dog versus the code on this 1221 01:08:25,600 --> 01:08:28,360 Speaker 1: dog or the furnishings they call it. There's a lot 1222 01:08:28,400 --> 01:08:30,880 Speaker 1: of they call the dog's color. It's furnishings. No, it's 1223 01:08:30,920 --> 01:08:33,479 Speaker 1: coat coat. Yeah, so when it has the big beard 1224 01:08:33,760 --> 01:08:37,559 Speaker 1: in the big fuzzy faces, furnishings, right, yeah, Rusty always 1225 01:08:37,560 --> 01:08:42,439 Speaker 1: thought it was the testicles. Know, He's always going like, hey, 1226 01:08:42,640 --> 01:08:48,000 Speaker 1: how's that dog's furnishing. Oh yeah, it didn't have any 1227 01:08:48,280 --> 01:08:53,840 Speaker 1: furnish anyway. So so during like right now, currently, this 1228 01:08:53,880 --> 01:08:57,640 Speaker 1: is a friend of mine. Uh no, I won't even 1229 01:08:57,680 --> 01:08:59,720 Speaker 1: say what he's decorated for anyway, He's he's over in 1230 01:08:59,720 --> 01:09:04,360 Speaker 1: yourpe right now working for us. Yeah, and so he 1231 01:09:04,439 --> 01:09:10,919 Speaker 1: has a German breath. Well, I don't know if I 1232 01:09:10,920 --> 01:09:12,880 Speaker 1: I really I don't know how far we're gonna go 1233 01:09:12,880 --> 01:09:16,400 Speaker 1: into that. But anyway, he told me that in Germany 1234 01:09:16,520 --> 01:09:18,960 Speaker 1: right now, if this happens in the course of a 1235 01:09:19,160 --> 01:09:22,599 Speaker 1: hunt and you're with somebody as a witness, okay, they 1236 01:09:22,640 --> 01:09:25,240 Speaker 1: that is still a desirable trait. So if you and 1237 01:09:25,280 --> 01:09:27,639 Speaker 1: I were out hunting and my dog even a feral cat, 1238 01:09:28,320 --> 01:09:31,719 Speaker 1: my dog dispatched a feral cat, I could say, like Steve, 1239 01:09:31,720 --> 01:09:34,639 Speaker 1: write a note to my breed Warden that you're a hunter. 1240 01:09:34,920 --> 01:09:37,280 Speaker 1: I saw, I saw Ron's dog do it, and it 1241 01:09:37,320 --> 01:09:41,400 Speaker 1: would go. It would be duly noted in that dog's paperwork. Now, 1242 01:09:42,120 --> 01:09:44,519 Speaker 1: what they've done here, I can't speak for Germany, but 1243 01:09:44,560 --> 01:09:47,640 Speaker 1: when I started getting into the Versaill Dog world, I 1244 01:09:47,680 --> 01:09:49,320 Speaker 1: knew a lot of people that were in what's called 1245 01:09:49,320 --> 01:09:51,080 Speaker 1: the v d d g n A that's very in 1246 01:09:51,120 --> 01:09:55,760 Speaker 1: Deutsch Rat Group North America, and that's the group that 1247 01:09:55,800 --> 01:10:00,440 Speaker 1: the fellow from Alaska wrote the email from. Okay, Um, 1248 01:10:00,720 --> 01:10:04,080 Speaker 1: the best of my knowledge, that is still a requirement 1249 01:10:04,160 --> 01:10:07,000 Speaker 1: to breed. They want to make sure that your dog 1250 01:10:07,040 --> 01:10:11,240 Speaker 1: will dispatch game. And they called a sharpness or hardness hardness. 1251 01:10:11,400 --> 01:10:15,040 Speaker 1: I think it's hardness like HD. What would most American 1252 01:10:15,880 --> 01:10:19,320 Speaker 1: upland hunters with dogs, I would think would consider that 1253 01:10:19,360 --> 01:10:22,280 Speaker 1: to be an undesirable trade. Well, I've always said they 1254 01:10:22,280 --> 01:10:25,600 Speaker 1: wouldn't have started if they had porcupines in Germany, Like 1255 01:10:25,640 --> 01:10:27,840 Speaker 1: I really think they would not if they had porcupines 1256 01:10:27,880 --> 01:10:32,920 Speaker 1: in Germany. That it's because porcupines are the worst thing 1257 01:10:32,960 --> 01:10:34,880 Speaker 1: for a dog to get into. My dogs have killed 1258 01:10:34,960 --> 01:10:37,160 Speaker 1: raccoons to get a scratch on the ear. Go kill 1259 01:10:37,200 --> 01:10:40,080 Speaker 1: a porcupine and it's six dollars of emergency that you know, 1260 01:10:40,200 --> 01:10:43,960 Speaker 1: I'm taken out. So anyway, So that was part of 1261 01:10:44,000 --> 01:10:46,559 Speaker 1: the testing to the best of my knowledge, and to 1262 01:10:46,600 --> 01:10:49,360 Speaker 1: the best of my knowledge it still is. But you know, 1263 01:10:49,400 --> 01:10:55,320 Speaker 1: somebody can write in the controversy came up um in NAVDA. 1264 01:10:55,760 --> 01:11:00,479 Speaker 1: Nowhere in our testing do we test on for. But 1265 01:11:00,840 --> 01:11:03,200 Speaker 1: you are allowed in this one part of a one 1266 01:11:03,200 --> 01:11:06,679 Speaker 1: part of our utility test. We take typically a duck 1267 01:11:07,600 --> 01:11:09,680 Speaker 1: and we put like a long leash on it, and 1268 01:11:09,720 --> 01:11:11,960 Speaker 1: it's called a drag. So the dog is over in 1269 01:11:12,000 --> 01:11:14,400 Speaker 1: the truck with the owner. I make a little feather pile, 1270 01:11:14,400 --> 01:11:17,240 Speaker 1: and I dragged this duck yards and the dead duck 1271 01:11:17,280 --> 01:11:20,519 Speaker 1: a dead duck, and I drag it into the woods 1272 01:11:20,600 --> 01:11:22,519 Speaker 1: and kind of hide it. And then I go behind 1273 01:11:22,520 --> 01:11:24,599 Speaker 1: another tree or something to stay out away from the dog. 1274 01:11:25,160 --> 01:11:27,639 Speaker 1: I blow my whistle. They call the owner. The dog 1275 01:11:27,680 --> 01:11:29,960 Speaker 1: comes up. Now, this isn't the dog's test of nose 1276 01:11:30,040 --> 01:11:33,679 Speaker 1: because a dead duck dragon in the grass. I mean, anybody, 1277 01:11:33,680 --> 01:11:38,120 Speaker 1: your dog at home could find that. We can try 1278 01:11:38,120 --> 01:11:41,360 Speaker 1: it tonight if you had time. Um, But what this 1279 01:11:41,400 --> 01:11:44,880 Speaker 1: does is shows the dog's cooperation and obedience, like you 1280 01:11:44,960 --> 01:11:49,639 Speaker 1: have to go retrieve that. And in our rules, because 1281 01:11:50,200 --> 01:11:53,080 Speaker 1: we have a big background, we have a historic connection 1282 01:11:53,120 --> 01:11:56,320 Speaker 1: with Germany. Boat a winner held it started NAVDA. You 1283 01:11:56,320 --> 01:12:01,160 Speaker 1: know he came from that world, and we allow replacement 1284 01:12:01,240 --> 01:12:03,760 Speaker 1: if the chapter will provide a duck. But if you 1285 01:12:03,800 --> 01:12:06,120 Speaker 1: are a person that wants to do it with a 1286 01:12:06,200 --> 01:12:09,160 Speaker 1: rabbit or a squirrel or a woodchuck, you could bring 1287 01:12:09,200 --> 01:12:13,720 Speaker 1: your own dead let's say, cold dead road kill or 1288 01:12:13,760 --> 01:12:17,840 Speaker 1: something you had in refrigerator the night before. Because a 1289 01:12:17,920 --> 01:12:19,840 Speaker 1: lot of the members from v D D G n 1290 01:12:19,960 --> 01:12:24,160 Speaker 1: A are also members of Navada, so they're practicing. These 1291 01:12:24,160 --> 01:12:26,040 Speaker 1: are people that really like to test their dogs. So 1292 01:12:26,080 --> 01:12:27,800 Speaker 1: they come to our venue and they test their dogs, 1293 01:12:27,840 --> 01:12:29,880 Speaker 1: and they go in their venue and test dogs and 1294 01:12:29,920 --> 01:12:32,599 Speaker 1: their and their venue. There's a lot more of these 1295 01:12:32,720 --> 01:12:37,240 Speaker 1: drag which is the retrieve, and there's a lot of emphasis. 1296 01:12:37,479 --> 01:12:40,880 Speaker 1: There's an old saying that the Europeans want a tracking dog, 1297 01:12:40,920 --> 01:12:43,800 Speaker 1: little point and Americans want to pointing dog, little track. 1298 01:12:44,640 --> 01:12:47,679 Speaker 1: So their emphasis in Europe has always been on recovery 1299 01:12:47,680 --> 01:12:50,240 Speaker 1: of game. Like you are not allowed to go upland 1300 01:12:50,280 --> 01:12:52,919 Speaker 1: hunting your duck hunting without a dog. You can in America, 1301 01:12:53,000 --> 01:12:55,920 Speaker 1: but not in Europe, not in Germany, and you can't 1302 01:12:55,920 --> 01:13:00,160 Speaker 1: big game hunt unless you have the resources of it's 1303 01:13:00,160 --> 01:13:02,280 Speaker 1: like a United Blood trackers, which they don't have there, 1304 01:13:02,680 --> 01:13:06,160 Speaker 1: but they always have. Like the hunting property that Ben 1305 01:13:06,200 --> 01:13:07,880 Speaker 1: told me about it, they call it a reserve. Might 1306 01:13:07,880 --> 01:13:11,160 Speaker 1: be two or three farmers get together and let's say, okay, 1307 01:13:11,240 --> 01:13:13,280 Speaker 1: let's let's get a lesi to come out here and 1308 01:13:13,280 --> 01:13:15,200 Speaker 1: they can hunt and they can, you know, take some 1309 01:13:15,280 --> 01:13:17,200 Speaker 1: of the road deer or the red deer whatever is 1310 01:13:17,200 --> 01:13:20,320 Speaker 1: on the in that area. And you know, if there's ducks, 1311 01:13:20,320 --> 01:13:22,920 Speaker 1: they can hunt ducks. So those hunters are kind of 1312 01:13:22,920 --> 01:13:27,280 Speaker 1: in charge of that piece of property. And so in 1313 01:13:27,760 --> 01:13:30,240 Speaker 1: Germany or in the vd d g n A testing, 1314 01:13:30,880 --> 01:13:34,000 Speaker 1: they do a lot more recovery, so they want they 1315 01:13:34,080 --> 01:13:37,240 Speaker 1: actually will drag a dead fox and they call it 1316 01:13:37,240 --> 01:13:39,200 Speaker 1: a fox in a box that dogs jump over like 1317 01:13:39,200 --> 01:13:42,080 Speaker 1: a box edge and retrieve a fox and bring a 1318 01:13:42,080 --> 01:13:45,920 Speaker 1: fox back a rabbit backup, you know. So that's where 1319 01:13:45,960 --> 01:13:50,120 Speaker 1: the that little miss up happened. We don't trained for 1320 01:13:50,200 --> 01:13:52,240 Speaker 1: it in our test, but at one portion of lar 1321 01:13:52,360 --> 01:13:55,000 Speaker 1: test you are allowed to bring in your own cold 1322 01:13:55,080 --> 01:13:58,040 Speaker 1: fur god for that portion test. Nowhere else in the 1323 01:13:58,120 --> 01:14:01,840 Speaker 1: test can you substitute whatever the chapter would provide for you. 1324 01:14:02,280 --> 01:14:06,040 Speaker 1: Can you explain what you were telling me about you 1325 01:14:06,080 --> 01:14:11,160 Speaker 1: mentioned that in certain German systems where there's a person 1326 01:14:11,200 --> 01:14:14,560 Speaker 1: that you mentioned the arranged marriage thing. Yeah, you that 1327 01:14:14,640 --> 01:14:16,519 Speaker 1: you could have a dog and bring it down and 1328 01:14:16,520 --> 01:14:19,880 Speaker 1: and that dog would get stamped do not breed right 1329 01:14:19,880 --> 01:14:22,519 Speaker 1: if if the dog, if the dog failed, Let's say 1330 01:14:23,720 --> 01:14:25,800 Speaker 1: let's say the dog did fail. It's hard dis test 1331 01:14:26,240 --> 01:14:28,720 Speaker 1: like this dog just can't close the deal on a 1332 01:14:28,760 --> 01:14:31,519 Speaker 1: skunk or a possum or whatever. They would stamp do 1333 01:14:31,560 --> 01:14:35,679 Speaker 1: not breed on their papers because you can't breed within 1334 01:14:35,720 --> 01:14:38,479 Speaker 1: the club without the blessing of the club. We're in America. 1335 01:14:38,920 --> 01:14:40,559 Speaker 1: You and I could breed your dog and my dog. 1336 01:14:40,720 --> 01:14:43,400 Speaker 1: No one's gonna stop me. But in when you're in 1337 01:14:43,479 --> 01:14:46,720 Speaker 1: that club, of that breed club, the breed warden, like 1338 01:14:46,800 --> 01:14:49,840 Speaker 1: he sits at the throne of the breeding, he'll say like, 1339 01:14:50,040 --> 01:14:53,599 Speaker 1: Steve's got a dog that's um got a nice coat, 1340 01:14:53,840 --> 01:14:56,719 Speaker 1: maybe not a great undercoat, and Ron's got a dog 1341 01:14:56,760 --> 01:14:58,600 Speaker 1: that's coat would compliment that. Now they have to have 1342 01:14:58,640 --> 01:15:02,559 Speaker 1: all the hunting skills up there through testing. See oh, 1343 01:15:03,000 --> 01:15:05,360 Speaker 1: in that club, you also don't get to breed your 1344 01:15:05,400 --> 01:15:09,320 Speaker 1: dog unless it passes these tests. We're Navada. You could 1345 01:15:09,360 --> 01:15:11,280 Speaker 1: fail your dog and still go to your neighbor and 1346 01:15:11,280 --> 01:15:13,120 Speaker 1: breed your German short hair to his German short hair. 1347 01:15:13,160 --> 01:15:15,160 Speaker 1: They could both and sell it as a German short hair. 1348 01:15:16,600 --> 01:15:20,920 Speaker 1: But they don't have to pass the test to be bred. 1349 01:15:21,080 --> 01:15:24,600 Speaker 1: But if it's in the European judging system or or 1350 01:15:24,760 --> 01:15:28,000 Speaker 1: breed club system, those dogs not only have to participate 1351 01:15:28,040 --> 01:15:30,000 Speaker 1: in the test, they have to get a passing score. 1352 01:15:30,760 --> 01:15:32,920 Speaker 1: So you don't have a bunch of you know, guys 1353 01:15:32,960 --> 01:15:37,240 Speaker 1: like me in high school breeding Basically, uh what in 1354 01:15:37,320 --> 01:15:41,920 Speaker 1: your mind based on uh, your experienced judge and dogs. 1355 01:15:43,320 --> 01:15:46,280 Speaker 1: If someone's gonna go this is highly subjective. I understand 1356 01:15:47,080 --> 01:15:49,599 Speaker 1: if someone's gonna go buy a dog, like I don't 1357 01:15:49,680 --> 01:15:51,080 Speaker 1: know what kind of dog to get. I want the 1358 01:15:51,120 --> 01:15:54,200 Speaker 1: most versatile dog I can find on the planet. You 1359 01:15:54,240 --> 01:15:57,640 Speaker 1: would say, the one that was near and dearest to 1360 01:15:57,680 --> 01:16:00,760 Speaker 1: my heart was a German wire head pointer, which is 1361 01:16:01,400 --> 01:16:06,240 Speaker 1: the English version of Deutsche droth her so. Deutsche is 1362 01:16:06,280 --> 01:16:11,880 Speaker 1: German dropped her is wire hair, so German wire hare. 1363 01:16:12,000 --> 01:16:14,800 Speaker 1: That's always been my go to favorite dog. But that's 1364 01:16:14,800 --> 01:16:17,679 Speaker 1: not the kind of dog you run. No. I got 1365 01:16:17,680 --> 01:16:20,280 Speaker 1: tired of all the cats and all the deer and 1366 01:16:20,360 --> 01:16:24,160 Speaker 1: the fawns and the porcupines, and the dog fights, and 1367 01:16:24,280 --> 01:16:26,799 Speaker 1: because they're just too aggressive. They can be to aggress 1368 01:16:26,800 --> 01:16:30,000 Speaker 1: shouldn't say too aggresive, they're aggressive, they're aggressive. Yeah, if 1369 01:16:30,000 --> 01:16:32,880 Speaker 1: there's a dog that's prone to, you know, even getting 1370 01:16:32,880 --> 01:16:35,760 Speaker 1: a fight with another dog, it's a dog that's got that. 1371 01:16:36,080 --> 01:16:38,599 Speaker 1: He's kind of like a hyper vigilant dog. It's almost 1372 01:16:38,680 --> 01:16:41,600 Speaker 1: like picture a bunch of guys that fighting m m 1373 01:16:41,680 --> 01:16:43,400 Speaker 1: A and going drinking with them. There's probably gonna be 1374 01:16:43,439 --> 01:16:45,720 Speaker 1: a fight in the bar that night, right, But if 1375 01:16:45,720 --> 01:16:47,320 Speaker 1: you went to the men tell you not, they tell 1376 01:16:47,360 --> 01:16:50,360 Speaker 1: you because it's all that aggression is released into the ring. 1377 01:16:50,640 --> 01:16:52,840 Speaker 1: Yeah all that. Yeah, And what's funny is I went 1378 01:16:52,840 --> 01:16:55,120 Speaker 1: to an M m A fight one time and watched 1379 01:16:55,479 --> 01:16:58,800 Speaker 1: no fewer than three fights in the crowd, including one 1380 01:16:58,800 --> 01:17:03,120 Speaker 1: that sent a woman away on a stretcher. But then, meanwhile, 1381 01:17:03,200 --> 01:17:06,240 Speaker 1: was supposed to be that there's no it's all alleviated 1382 01:17:06,320 --> 01:17:09,040 Speaker 1: through the spectacle. I'm like, oh, you can't like a 1383 01:17:09,080 --> 01:17:11,200 Speaker 1: hockey game. You can't take the hard the hardness out 1384 01:17:11,200 --> 01:17:14,479 Speaker 1: of the dog, you know. So so the dogs I run, now, 1385 01:17:14,600 --> 01:17:17,800 Speaker 1: yeah they are. They're kind of known for not The 1386 01:17:17,840 --> 01:17:21,760 Speaker 1: Italians are not. They don't have that type of testing system. 1387 01:17:21,800 --> 01:17:24,439 Speaker 1: They've never had it. The dogs just had to perform 1388 01:17:24,479 --> 01:17:28,960 Speaker 1: in the field for upland game. So generations, hundreds of 1389 01:17:29,000 --> 01:17:31,040 Speaker 1: years of that get a dog that really doesn't care 1390 01:17:31,120 --> 01:17:34,000 Speaker 1: much about you know. For now, it still happens, don't. 1391 01:17:34,280 --> 01:17:37,840 Speaker 1: Don't get me wrong. Bravo Bravos killed a couple of 1392 01:17:37,920 --> 01:17:40,639 Speaker 1: cats in his later years for some reason. I don't 1393 01:17:40,640 --> 01:17:44,640 Speaker 1: know why, but I would trust him around most domestic animals. 1394 01:17:44,960 --> 01:17:48,280 Speaker 1: A broco Italiano still has that. They're just pretty. They're 1395 01:17:48,320 --> 01:17:52,960 Speaker 1: just not interested in for but the German wire hair 1396 01:17:53,040 --> 01:17:56,680 Speaker 1: or Deutsch strathire, or the German short hair or the 1397 01:17:56,840 --> 01:18:01,679 Speaker 1: German equivalent is the Deutsch kurtzher. Those animals are more 1398 01:18:01,760 --> 01:18:04,679 Speaker 1: prone to Like if you're out hunting in a feral 1399 01:18:04,720 --> 01:18:07,559 Speaker 1: cat scoots out of the grass, that's the last run 1400 01:18:07,640 --> 01:18:10,439 Speaker 1: for the cat. It's gonna be honest. What's the worst 1401 01:18:10,520 --> 01:18:13,960 Speaker 1: kind of dog? Oh, there's no worst. It's really that 1402 01:18:14,040 --> 01:18:16,760 Speaker 1: gets down to breeding, Like if if what what I 1403 01:18:16,800 --> 01:18:18,679 Speaker 1: mentioned earlier, If so, there's not a kind of dog 1404 01:18:18,720 --> 01:18:21,080 Speaker 1: that people insist on buying, and then you, after all 1405 01:18:21,080 --> 01:18:23,519 Speaker 1: the testing experience you've had, you're just like you just 1406 01:18:23,920 --> 01:18:28,240 Speaker 1: you're wasting your time. I would say, I would say 1407 01:18:28,240 --> 01:18:30,280 Speaker 1: in every breed of dog, I could find you one 1408 01:18:30,360 --> 01:18:33,040 Speaker 1: that would be adequate in the field. But there are 1409 01:18:33,160 --> 01:18:36,000 Speaker 1: breeds that haven't had the testing and and kind of 1410 01:18:36,040 --> 01:18:39,360 Speaker 1: lost favor with the upland hunter over the Like the 1411 01:18:39,400 --> 01:18:41,880 Speaker 1: one that everybody talks about is the Irish center. You know, 1412 01:18:42,000 --> 01:18:46,040 Speaker 1: real pretty mahogany coat, you know, just a friendly dog. 1413 01:18:46,360 --> 01:18:48,360 Speaker 1: Back in the day. That was the upland dog in 1414 01:18:48,400 --> 01:18:52,800 Speaker 1: North America for for years, and then the popularity when 1415 01:18:52,840 --> 01:18:55,479 Speaker 1: the German dogs came over after War War two, the 1416 01:18:55,560 --> 01:18:58,000 Speaker 1: hunters started going for German short hairs and German wire hairs, 1417 01:18:58,000 --> 01:19:02,360 Speaker 1: and win Mariners, and and and the the breeders who 1418 01:19:02,400 --> 01:19:07,320 Speaker 1: are still breeding the ira center. They just lost popularity. 1419 01:19:07,479 --> 01:19:09,559 Speaker 1: And so right now to take an Irish center and 1420 01:19:09,560 --> 01:19:11,800 Speaker 1: put it in through our system, it could be done, 1421 01:19:11,800 --> 01:19:14,200 Speaker 1: and it is done. But if you called me up 1422 01:19:14,200 --> 01:19:15,920 Speaker 1: and said, ron, I want a versatild dog and my 1423 01:19:15,960 --> 01:19:18,880 Speaker 1: wife wants Iras center, I'd say, let's get you one 1424 01:19:18,880 --> 01:19:31,479 Speaker 1: that you got a better chance of. Yeah, Brody, telling 1425 01:19:31,479 --> 01:19:35,200 Speaker 1: about your dog, Man, Oh, the English springer Spaniel. He's 1426 01:19:35,240 --> 01:19:39,000 Speaker 1: got big shoes to fill. Man, my dog was good 1427 01:19:39,800 --> 01:19:45,160 Speaker 1: and that dog just required very little training. But um, 1428 01:19:45,200 --> 01:19:48,040 Speaker 1: I went a year after that first one died. I 1429 01:19:48,040 --> 01:19:49,679 Speaker 1: didn't know if I was going to get another one. 1430 01:19:50,120 --> 01:19:55,760 Speaker 1: Got another Springer Spaniel, and uh, man, it's just it's 1431 01:19:55,800 --> 01:19:58,599 Speaker 1: not his fault. It's like he's coming along. I shot 1432 01:19:58,640 --> 01:20:01,000 Speaker 1: a couple of grouse over him, pheasants, a couple of 1433 01:20:01,080 --> 01:20:05,080 Speaker 1: ducks over him last last fall, and the old dog 1434 01:20:05,120 --> 01:20:09,439 Speaker 1: would retrieve ducks. This one will not so far. Um, 1435 01:20:09,479 --> 01:20:14,360 Speaker 1: how old is it, Brodie, He's about sixteen months now. Um, 1436 01:20:14,600 --> 01:20:18,240 Speaker 1: give him time. Well, that's the problem. Is like I 1437 01:20:18,320 --> 01:20:21,720 Speaker 1: just you know, I go hunting for other stuff and 1438 01:20:21,760 --> 01:20:25,080 Speaker 1: don't dedicate enough time to training him, and so hopefully 1439 01:20:25,120 --> 01:20:29,320 Speaker 1: he'll come along. I'm not writing him off yet. What 1440 01:20:29,400 --> 01:20:31,120 Speaker 1: do you think of the general name of the dog? 1441 01:20:31,640 --> 01:20:34,720 Speaker 1: What's the dog's name, Dusty? The name of the kind 1442 01:20:34,760 --> 01:20:39,200 Speaker 1: of daylish springers a flushing dog. So I don't have 1443 01:20:39,240 --> 01:20:41,840 Speaker 1: a lot of background with flushing dogs. There's three major types. 1444 01:20:41,880 --> 01:20:46,799 Speaker 1: The hounds that that Clay has, which for tracking, mostly 1445 01:20:46,840 --> 01:20:50,280 Speaker 1: for big game or raccoons, and then you have the 1446 01:20:50,280 --> 01:20:52,720 Speaker 1: flushing dogs, which are in the retriever category. So you've 1447 01:20:52,720 --> 01:20:57,439 Speaker 1: got Springer Spaniels, Irish water Spaniel, Labrador Retriever uh chest 1448 01:20:57,479 --> 01:21:01,760 Speaker 1: Peak Bay Retriever. When those dogs are used, they're retrieving specialists, 1449 01:21:01,800 --> 01:21:03,240 Speaker 1: which is kind of funny. That doesn't pick up a 1450 01:21:03,280 --> 01:21:05,679 Speaker 1: duck usually pick up everything. He's kind of a whim. 1451 01:21:06,080 --> 01:21:09,720 Speaker 1: Well then that happens. There's no fixing that, right, Yeah, No, 1452 01:21:09,920 --> 01:21:13,640 Speaker 1: Usually maturity fixes that sometimes. Just didn't you ever know 1453 01:21:13,800 --> 01:21:17,200 Speaker 1: kids that like like my daughter Jesse, she didn't. She 1454 01:21:17,280 --> 01:21:21,679 Speaker 1: was real shy and now she's on news every other Sunday, 1455 01:21:21,760 --> 01:21:24,200 Speaker 1: you know, doing a cooking segment. She was real shy 1456 01:21:24,240 --> 01:21:26,559 Speaker 1: as a kid just took her a while to find 1457 01:21:26,560 --> 01:21:28,320 Speaker 1: her voice, and dogs can be the same way. Yeah, 1458 01:21:28,320 --> 01:21:30,759 Speaker 1: I mean he'll he'll pick up he picked up grouse 1459 01:21:30,960 --> 01:21:34,559 Speaker 1: and yeah it was new and he was like, yeah, 1460 01:21:34,600 --> 01:21:38,960 Speaker 1: I don't know, maybe I'm not even supposed to you know, right, 1461 01:21:39,360 --> 01:21:40,840 Speaker 1: you know, if the first thing you shot form was 1462 01:21:40,880 --> 01:21:43,439 Speaker 1: a duckling out of season, he might be good duck. Right. 1463 01:21:44,040 --> 01:21:46,840 Speaker 1: So those dogs don't point, so therefore they're not in 1464 01:21:46,920 --> 01:21:50,600 Speaker 1: the I don't judge Springer Spans with you. Yeah. Um, 1465 01:21:50,640 --> 01:21:52,600 Speaker 1: But as far as training the dog, it's all the 1466 01:21:52,600 --> 01:21:56,880 Speaker 1: same training. You know, the you just know in the process, 1467 01:21:56,880 --> 01:21:59,400 Speaker 1: like Brodie's job is to make sure that dog stays 1468 01:21:59,400 --> 01:22:02,960 Speaker 1: within shot on range, and the dog's natural range should 1469 01:22:02,960 --> 01:22:06,400 Speaker 1: be more cooperative, it should be more around you anyway. 1470 01:22:07,280 --> 01:22:09,840 Speaker 1: And with the pointing dogs, you have to work on 1471 01:22:09,880 --> 01:22:12,240 Speaker 1: the steadiness of the point because of a pointing dog 1472 01:22:12,320 --> 01:22:14,680 Speaker 1: will find a bird and after a while he just 1473 01:22:15,120 --> 01:22:18,000 Speaker 1: he just he just can't handle it and he's gonna 1474 01:22:18,240 --> 01:22:20,200 Speaker 1: and if he gets into that bird before you get there, 1475 01:22:20,760 --> 01:22:23,640 Speaker 1: which could be to yards away, especially in the Dakotas 1476 01:22:23,960 --> 01:22:26,080 Speaker 1: or why hunting North Dakota, you can see a dog 1477 01:22:26,120 --> 01:22:29,120 Speaker 1: on point three hundred yards away. Well, if he can't 1478 01:22:29,160 --> 01:22:32,439 Speaker 1: hold his ship together, you're not get any birds. You know, 1479 01:22:32,800 --> 01:22:37,799 Speaker 1: break breaks point exactly. So that's like our curses working 1480 01:22:37,840 --> 01:22:40,840 Speaker 1: at steadiness, and in a flushing dog, it's keeping that 1481 01:22:40,880 --> 01:22:45,120 Speaker 1: dog within let's say yards, You don't and they you know, 1482 01:22:45,200 --> 01:22:49,080 Speaker 1: you want him quartering back, which he does. What they 1483 01:22:49,120 --> 01:22:52,880 Speaker 1: do nice and is you always think, why are the 1484 01:22:52,880 --> 01:22:55,360 Speaker 1: birds always out there where my pointing dogs found him? 1485 01:22:55,439 --> 01:22:57,760 Speaker 1: Well they're also birds you're walking by. Because your dogs 1486 01:22:57,800 --> 01:22:59,599 Speaker 1: are already two hundred yards away from you. You You can't 1487 01:22:59,640 --> 01:23:02,519 Speaker 1: smell it on the ground. The flushing dog kind of 1488 01:23:02,720 --> 01:23:06,439 Speaker 1: vacuums like everywhere you're walking. So a lot of people, 1489 01:23:06,800 --> 01:23:09,720 Speaker 1: it's very popular, will hunt with a flushing dog and 1490 01:23:09,760 --> 01:23:12,799 Speaker 1: a pointing dog. Oh yeah, Now the training comes into 1491 01:23:12,920 --> 01:23:15,280 Speaker 1: like when the when the two lines meet. But a 1492 01:23:15,320 --> 01:23:16,840 Speaker 1: lot of times that pointer could just be out there 1493 01:23:16,880 --> 01:23:18,639 Speaker 1: on the horizon or out there in the field hunting, 1494 01:23:18,880 --> 01:23:21,320 Speaker 1: and your flusher could be walking along a fence line 1495 01:23:21,360 --> 01:23:23,040 Speaker 1: with you and boom, take something right out of there. 1496 01:23:23,320 --> 01:23:24,920 Speaker 1: You probably roll your eyes and people tall you this 1497 01:23:24,920 --> 01:23:27,439 Speaker 1: because I bet you everybody tells you this. But when 1498 01:23:27,439 --> 01:23:29,080 Speaker 1: you knew our dog, we had a really good dog, 1499 01:23:29,120 --> 01:23:31,320 Speaker 1: like a really good flushing dog growing up. Yeah, you 1500 01:23:31,360 --> 01:23:34,639 Speaker 1: had that white lab. Yeah she was great for rough grouse. 1501 01:23:34,680 --> 01:23:36,160 Speaker 1: But the only that made her good for rough grouse 1502 01:23:36,360 --> 01:23:39,400 Speaker 1: she didn't go far away, right she was, so she 1503 01:23:39,439 --> 01:23:42,120 Speaker 1: would run. She flushed birds. I don't know when she 1504 01:23:42,200 --> 01:23:45,360 Speaker 1: was flushing birds, but she'd just be like busybody and 1505 01:23:45,520 --> 01:23:47,920 Speaker 1: within twenty yards you no matter where you went, and 1506 01:23:48,320 --> 01:23:50,439 Speaker 1: inadvertently kick stuff up. And it was very good at 1507 01:23:50,439 --> 01:23:53,240 Speaker 1: finding it, yea. So it wasn't that it's goodness was 1508 01:23:53,280 --> 01:23:56,439 Speaker 1: only that it liked to smell around and didn't go away. 1509 01:23:57,000 --> 01:23:58,360 Speaker 1: And if there was a thicket that you didn't want 1510 01:23:58,360 --> 01:23:59,960 Speaker 1: to go into and you waited for a minute, she'd 1511 01:24:00,000 --> 01:24:01,640 Speaker 1: eventually get bored and going there and look around and 1512 01:24:02,080 --> 01:24:04,400 Speaker 1: something comes busting out. Yeah, And like when you like 1513 01:24:04,439 --> 01:24:07,439 Speaker 1: grouse hunting by our house, Like if a grouse is 1514 01:24:07,479 --> 01:24:10,640 Speaker 1: on the ground and you just start walking by, like 1515 01:24:10,720 --> 01:24:13,759 Speaker 1: that grouse's job is to sit. Like when he flies, 1516 01:24:13,760 --> 01:24:16,760 Speaker 1: he's gonna get taken by a hawk, right Statistically, that's 1517 01:24:16,760 --> 01:24:19,240 Speaker 1: how they're going to die the most. So his job 1518 01:24:19,320 --> 01:24:20,880 Speaker 1: is to sit. So if you're walking through the woods 1519 01:24:20,920 --> 01:24:23,400 Speaker 1: with your brothers and you're talking the girls is like 1520 01:24:23,640 --> 01:24:25,360 Speaker 1: they don't know, they don't know I'm here. But now 1521 01:24:25,400 --> 01:24:28,000 Speaker 1: you throw this other thing that's like, what, what's that 1522 01:24:28,080 --> 01:24:30,280 Speaker 1: a erratic footstep? Why? Why am I hearing footsteps over here? 1523 01:24:30,280 --> 01:24:32,160 Speaker 1: Why am I hearing footsteps? And then that kind of 1524 01:24:32,240 --> 01:24:34,640 Speaker 1: unnerves the grouse and girls like I can handle three 1525 01:24:34,720 --> 01:24:37,679 Speaker 1: kids walking by me. But whatever that, you know, whatever 1526 01:24:37,720 --> 01:24:40,040 Speaker 1: that which is more like a coyote or a bobcat, 1527 01:24:40,080 --> 01:24:41,800 Speaker 1: you know that's of course they don't hunt like a 1528 01:24:41,840 --> 01:24:45,000 Speaker 1: dog does. But um so that yeah, yeah, duchess would 1529 01:24:45,040 --> 01:24:47,639 Speaker 1: be a real helpful again with the range though, if 1530 01:24:47,680 --> 01:24:52,000 Speaker 1: she did that fifty yards from you, you'll be hot. 1531 01:24:52,760 --> 01:24:56,599 Speaker 1: If people want to hunt a flusher and a pointer, 1532 01:24:56,840 --> 01:25:00,120 Speaker 1: how come nobody's just breeding two of them together and 1533 01:25:00,200 --> 01:25:03,160 Speaker 1: coming out with the best of both worlds. You know, 1534 01:25:04,160 --> 01:25:06,880 Speaker 1: a lot of money right there. Business point. You know, 1535 01:25:06,880 --> 01:25:08,840 Speaker 1: I got a little English cocker spaniel right now, and 1536 01:25:08,840 --> 01:25:10,560 Speaker 1: I could breathe that with one of my broccles and 1537 01:25:10,600 --> 01:25:12,639 Speaker 1: see what happens. But I'm not thinking that would work 1538 01:25:13,080 --> 01:25:17,240 Speaker 1: because whatever whatever instincts gonna if the pointing instinct comes 1539 01:25:17,240 --> 01:25:19,599 Speaker 1: through in the dog, it's always going to point, at 1540 01:25:19,680 --> 01:25:23,800 Speaker 1: least initially. And then if you were looking for that 1541 01:25:23,840 --> 01:25:26,800 Speaker 1: dog to just flush, and he kept the ranginus of 1542 01:25:26,840 --> 01:25:30,280 Speaker 1: the pointing dog. Well, then you're back out to unshootable birds. 1543 01:25:31,000 --> 01:25:33,880 Speaker 1: But it is real popular to hunt with a like 1544 01:25:33,920 --> 01:25:38,080 Speaker 1: a lab or cocker or springer um while you've got 1545 01:25:38,200 --> 01:25:41,000 Speaker 1: a pointing dog running out, you know, yeah, and there's 1546 01:25:41,000 --> 01:25:44,120 Speaker 1: a whole thing with like one the flushing dog honoring 1547 01:25:44,160 --> 01:25:47,200 Speaker 1: the pointer or vice. That's where the real high level trade. 1548 01:25:48,760 --> 01:25:50,960 Speaker 1: Like you tell the one dog, if you see him point, 1549 01:25:51,120 --> 01:25:53,479 Speaker 1: don't go in there and screwing it up right right, 1550 01:25:53,560 --> 01:25:55,559 Speaker 1: So if you would, if you saw your dog point, 1551 01:25:55,680 --> 01:25:59,280 Speaker 1: you would call your your flushing dog to heal you go. 1552 01:26:00,040 --> 01:26:01,439 Speaker 1: He'd come right back to your legs. You don't want 1553 01:26:01,479 --> 01:26:03,200 Speaker 1: to blow it. You don't want him to blow it. Right, 1554 01:26:03,320 --> 01:26:05,360 Speaker 1: But if you get close enough, now, if you're worth 1555 01:26:05,400 --> 01:26:07,880 Speaker 1: in ten yards of your dog and you know there's 1556 01:26:07,880 --> 01:26:10,240 Speaker 1: something there because you get to know your dog's points, 1557 01:26:10,280 --> 01:26:12,559 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, the tail gets loose or the 1558 01:26:12,600 --> 01:26:14,840 Speaker 1: body gets loose, or he might kind of look over 1559 01:26:14,880 --> 01:26:16,720 Speaker 1: his head and see if you're coming. That usually means 1560 01:26:16,720 --> 01:26:19,559 Speaker 1: the bird's gone or the birds starting to move. But 1561 01:26:19,640 --> 01:26:21,760 Speaker 1: his training is like I'm not allowed to move until 1562 01:26:21,800 --> 01:26:24,559 Speaker 1: my boss gets here. So what you don't want is 1563 01:26:24,560 --> 01:26:27,960 Speaker 1: that little flushing dog running in on a pointing dog 1564 01:26:28,200 --> 01:26:30,880 Speaker 1: when you don't know the situation yet. But when you 1565 01:26:30,920 --> 01:26:33,760 Speaker 1: get to say, let's say ten yards, let the little 1566 01:26:33,760 --> 01:26:36,960 Speaker 1: flusher go. But now the pointing dog can get mad 1567 01:26:37,280 --> 01:26:41,080 Speaker 1: because that's his bird. So you've gotta have it's it's 1568 01:26:41,080 --> 01:26:44,439 Speaker 1: a struggle are there with these high test, well trained dogs. 1569 01:26:44,479 --> 01:26:47,760 Speaker 1: Do you ever see anybody that gets that. They're able 1570 01:26:47,800 --> 01:26:50,040 Speaker 1: to go in and hunt woodcock and real dense cover 1571 01:26:51,000 --> 01:26:54,080 Speaker 1: and they whatever. Then the dogs like the pointer is, 1572 01:26:54,280 --> 01:26:57,000 Speaker 1: I'm only gonna work thirty yards, I'll still point. I'm 1573 01:26:57,040 --> 01:26:59,040 Speaker 1: working close. I've seen. But then you're going to open 1574 01:26:59,080 --> 01:27:01,800 Speaker 1: cover and the dog you're able to communicate to the dog, 1575 01:27:01,880 --> 01:27:04,160 Speaker 1: and then all he's he's out seventy eight yards looking 1576 01:27:04,160 --> 01:27:06,200 Speaker 1: for a pheasant out and open cover. It can can 1577 01:27:06,360 --> 01:27:08,000 Speaker 1: is it? Or is it one or the other? No, no, 1578 01:27:08,240 --> 01:27:10,880 Speaker 1: it should be both. In fact, in the NAVSA rules 1579 01:27:11,400 --> 01:27:13,800 Speaker 1: we don't implement it as much as we used to. 1580 01:27:14,439 --> 01:27:16,360 Speaker 1: But what we would do, Let's say if we rented 1581 01:27:16,479 --> 01:27:18,680 Speaker 1: uh a forty acre or we had a lease on 1582 01:27:18,720 --> 01:27:20,960 Speaker 1: a forty year eighty acre hay field to use for 1583 01:27:21,160 --> 01:27:23,519 Speaker 1: the field and if there was an adjoining wood lot. 1584 01:27:23,920 --> 01:27:27,880 Speaker 1: So in our old rules were take the dog now 1585 01:27:27,920 --> 01:27:31,200 Speaker 1: that's hunting this field, Take the dog into the wood lot, 1586 01:27:31,240 --> 01:27:33,840 Speaker 1: and you should see the dog's range tighten up. So 1587 01:27:33,880 --> 01:27:37,080 Speaker 1: that's an expectation that is an expectation doesn't always come, 1588 01:27:37,600 --> 01:27:41,479 Speaker 1: but it's an expectation, you know. And and honestly, I 1589 01:27:41,520 --> 01:27:43,320 Speaker 1: can't remember more than a half a dozen tests where 1590 01:27:43,360 --> 01:27:44,720 Speaker 1: I'm like, I don't worry, we got a little piece 1591 01:27:44,760 --> 01:27:46,200 Speaker 1: of woods, will walk through the woods to get to 1592 01:27:46,200 --> 01:27:49,080 Speaker 1: the next field, and I will make a note like 1593 01:27:49,680 --> 01:27:51,200 Speaker 1: that dog just wanted to get to the next field. 1594 01:27:51,520 --> 01:27:52,920 Speaker 1: Like and if there was a grouse sitting on the 1595 01:27:52,960 --> 01:27:54,559 Speaker 1: side of this wood lot, we weren't going to find it, 1596 01:27:54,640 --> 01:27:57,200 Speaker 1: you know. But it's something that we don't really set 1597 01:27:57,280 --> 01:27:58,960 Speaker 1: up for the test, but it is in our kind 1598 01:27:58,960 --> 01:28:01,680 Speaker 1: of our judge's hand. It's something we can do if 1599 01:28:01,720 --> 01:28:07,200 Speaker 1: we opt to explain. Um, we we're talking last night 1600 01:28:07,200 --> 01:28:09,000 Speaker 1: as well, and you were talking about a thing that 1601 01:28:10,640 --> 01:28:13,720 Speaker 1: that that you guys trained dogs to do that is 1602 01:28:13,760 --> 01:28:18,040 Speaker 1: just completely This has not like like residential house dog owners, 1603 01:28:18,439 --> 01:28:21,640 Speaker 1: this is not on their radar. But but the what 1604 01:28:21,680 --> 01:28:24,519 Speaker 1: do you call it where they get up on the block. Oh, 1605 01:28:24,600 --> 01:28:28,080 Speaker 1: I was talking about the program. My my friend justin 1606 01:28:28,120 --> 01:28:29,960 Speaker 1: to no no, yeah, but yeah, we'll talk to explain 1607 01:28:30,000 --> 01:28:32,000 Speaker 1: the program, but explain like what that's called, Like it's 1608 01:28:32,000 --> 01:28:33,720 Speaker 1: just part of the it's part of you guys take 1609 01:28:33,760 --> 01:28:35,400 Speaker 1: it as a matter of course that of course you 1610 01:28:35,439 --> 01:28:38,080 Speaker 1: can hunting dogs should do this. But you were talking 1611 01:28:38,120 --> 01:28:41,120 Speaker 1: about I don't know why any dog owner wouldn't want 1612 01:28:41,160 --> 01:28:44,080 Speaker 1: to establish this capability. It makes sense. Yeah, Well, we 1613 01:28:44,200 --> 01:28:45,920 Speaker 1: referred to it as a calming touch. So when a 1614 01:28:46,200 --> 01:28:49,840 Speaker 1: when a puppy is young, um, when you're real young, 1615 01:28:50,120 --> 01:28:51,960 Speaker 1: it's a matter of maybe putting them on your lap 1616 01:28:52,400 --> 01:28:55,439 Speaker 1: and fiddling with their paws and fiddling with their ears. 1617 01:28:55,680 --> 01:28:57,479 Speaker 1: Most puppies turn them on their back and they're like, 1618 01:28:58,400 --> 01:29:00,599 Speaker 1: you know, they don't want to be under back, So 1619 01:29:00,640 --> 01:29:02,400 Speaker 1: you do the best. No matter how nice the dog is, 1620 01:29:02,439 --> 01:29:05,280 Speaker 1: the bets got to wrestle it right, right, there's those dogs. 1621 01:29:05,320 --> 01:29:07,439 Speaker 1: So what we would do is, let's say, once you 1622 01:29:07,479 --> 01:29:09,960 Speaker 1: get this dog home and he's let's say, twelve weeks old, 1623 01:29:10,000 --> 01:29:12,320 Speaker 1: and he's you kind of gotta wait till they show 1624 01:29:12,320 --> 01:29:14,120 Speaker 1: you a little teenager nos in them. You know, if 1625 01:29:14,120 --> 01:29:16,720 Speaker 1: they're just walking around a little dopey. I mean, there's 1626 01:29:16,760 --> 01:29:19,240 Speaker 1: not much resistance. But what would do is take this 1627 01:29:19,320 --> 01:29:22,400 Speaker 1: dog up onto an elevated platform, whether it's your picnic table, 1628 01:29:22,439 --> 01:29:24,880 Speaker 1: a tailgate. And yeah, but you have in your in 1629 01:29:24,920 --> 01:29:28,960 Speaker 1: your shop, you have actual training table. The ramp right, 1630 01:29:29,040 --> 01:29:31,760 Speaker 1: and that's used for a whole lot of stuff. So 1631 01:29:31,800 --> 01:29:35,360 Speaker 1: I just happened to use the ramp and the table um. 1632 01:29:35,479 --> 01:29:37,320 Speaker 1: But for a person, let's say when you got your 1633 01:29:37,320 --> 01:29:39,479 Speaker 1: dog home. Now, yours was four months old when you 1634 01:29:39,520 --> 01:29:41,400 Speaker 1: got it. You don't know the history of it. But 1635 01:29:41,560 --> 01:29:43,559 Speaker 1: let's say it was eight weeks from a breeder or 1636 01:29:43,840 --> 01:29:46,680 Speaker 1: a farmer had an accidental litter. If you were to 1637 01:29:46,720 --> 01:29:49,400 Speaker 1: take that dog and in a show where they call 1638 01:29:49,479 --> 01:29:52,200 Speaker 1: stacking it, we call it a calming touch. You get 1639 01:29:52,200 --> 01:29:54,519 Speaker 1: it to sit up there, and you've got a short leash, 1640 01:29:54,600 --> 01:29:56,080 Speaker 1: or you kind of hold it by the leash, you know, 1641 01:29:56,120 --> 01:29:58,280 Speaker 1: hold it by its collar. You take your other hand 1642 01:29:58,280 --> 01:30:00,360 Speaker 1: and you run it down its back and up its 1643 01:30:00,360 --> 01:30:02,200 Speaker 1: tail and down its legs. You'll see a lot of 1644 01:30:02,200 --> 01:30:04,160 Speaker 1: dogs you you go to grab their lower leg and 1645 01:30:04,200 --> 01:30:06,280 Speaker 1: they pull their leg up, and they pull their leg up. Well, 1646 01:30:06,320 --> 01:30:09,800 Speaker 1: there's ways to offset that, like if they if you're 1647 01:30:09,800 --> 01:30:11,320 Speaker 1: having trouble letting them. They just don't want you to 1648 01:30:11,320 --> 01:30:13,439 Speaker 1: touch their back left leg for some reason. You reach 1649 01:30:13,439 --> 01:30:16,120 Speaker 1: around and you take to the right back leg. You 1650 01:30:16,120 --> 01:30:18,800 Speaker 1: start putting pressure on that while you're it's almost like 1651 01:30:18,840 --> 01:30:21,479 Speaker 1: you're milking a cow. You grab their right rear leg 1652 01:30:21,640 --> 01:30:23,160 Speaker 1: and all of a sudden they put their left one down, 1653 01:30:23,800 --> 01:30:26,920 Speaker 1: and uh, they're like, they're like basically trusting you to 1654 01:30:26,960 --> 01:30:30,160 Speaker 1: give them a physical exam because you can't. You can't 1655 01:30:30,200 --> 01:30:31,880 Speaker 1: ask a dog do you get any ticks on you today? 1656 01:30:32,600 --> 01:30:34,840 Speaker 1: You can't ask a dog give a toothache. You can't 1657 01:30:34,840 --> 01:30:37,240 Speaker 1: ask your dog do you have a ear infection? So 1658 01:30:37,280 --> 01:30:40,040 Speaker 1: you want your dog to be able to your hands 1659 01:30:40,040 --> 01:30:43,960 Speaker 1: should be able to literally, uh, stroke the tail, stroke 1660 01:30:44,040 --> 01:30:46,880 Speaker 1: the legs open, the lips up, pick his ears up, 1661 01:30:47,120 --> 01:30:49,880 Speaker 1: pick his lips up, count his teeth while he's standing there, 1662 01:30:49,920 --> 01:30:52,320 Speaker 1: while he's standing there. Now, that doesn't happen in one course, 1663 01:30:52,600 --> 01:30:55,559 Speaker 1: but it's something that like all people would benefit when 1664 01:30:55,600 --> 01:30:58,760 Speaker 1: they bring home a new dog. You know, uh, well, 1665 01:30:58,800 --> 01:31:03,360 Speaker 1: my brother is training llamas, like breaking and training llamas. 1666 01:31:04,800 --> 01:31:06,479 Speaker 1: After you get to the point where you can just 1667 01:31:06,600 --> 01:31:08,439 Speaker 1: you know, they're very like they're not like a horse. 1668 01:31:08,479 --> 01:31:10,519 Speaker 1: They never become your friend. I'm sure someone will be like, oh, 1669 01:31:10,520 --> 01:31:12,280 Speaker 1: my lot was my best friend. But I mean generally 1670 01:31:12,320 --> 01:31:15,000 Speaker 1: they're they're not. They don't need that. They don't have 1671 01:31:15,080 --> 01:31:17,400 Speaker 1: that deep connection where they were. A lot of horses 1672 01:31:17,439 --> 01:31:21,400 Speaker 1: really seem to like appreciate a human presence like they're 1673 01:31:21,400 --> 01:31:23,639 Speaker 1: just they're a little more they're a little more wild. 1674 01:31:23,680 --> 01:31:27,320 Speaker 1: It's safe to say. They're Yeah, they're they're not quite there. Um, 1675 01:31:27,360 --> 01:31:29,479 Speaker 1: a thing is working to the point. It's just funny 1676 01:31:29,479 --> 01:31:31,120 Speaker 1: you mentioned the feet. A thing is working to the 1677 01:31:31,120 --> 01:31:35,920 Speaker 1: point where you can handle his feet right, and it 1678 01:31:35,960 --> 01:31:38,280 Speaker 1: takes a lot. It takes a lot to get there 1679 01:31:38,280 --> 01:31:40,880 Speaker 1: where you're gonna approach it and touch its foot because 1680 01:31:41,080 --> 01:31:43,360 Speaker 1: it's like a sign of like, okay, we've gotten somewhere 1681 01:31:43,439 --> 01:31:47,880 Speaker 1: that I can touch. And it's really all it is 1682 01:31:47,880 --> 01:31:50,000 Speaker 1: is let the dogs just gotta you know, get his 1683 01:31:50,040 --> 01:31:52,360 Speaker 1: composure and be like, okay, this is this will be 1684 01:31:52,400 --> 01:31:54,800 Speaker 1: over in a minute. And then after a while the 1685 01:31:54,880 --> 01:31:57,759 Speaker 1: dog really likes it. And you know what dog doesn't 1686 01:31:57,760 --> 01:31:59,679 Speaker 1: like to be competitive? Whose dog comes up and said, 1687 01:31:59,760 --> 01:32:02,080 Speaker 1: keep pet he keeps knocking your arm up. That same 1688 01:32:02,120 --> 01:32:03,640 Speaker 1: dog if I stuck him up on a cooler in 1689 01:32:03,640 --> 01:32:05,200 Speaker 1: your backyard and I want to start looking at his 1690 01:32:05,240 --> 01:32:07,920 Speaker 1: back legs. He probably yeah, away from my back legs. 1691 01:32:08,000 --> 01:32:11,639 Speaker 1: So even in our in our testing, during a utility 1692 01:32:11,680 --> 01:32:14,320 Speaker 1: test or natural ability test, when a dog comes out 1693 01:32:14,320 --> 01:32:16,960 Speaker 1: of the water, we feel their coat, We count their teeth, 1694 01:32:17,520 --> 01:32:19,000 Speaker 1: and we look at their eyes set to make sure 1695 01:32:19,040 --> 01:32:22,720 Speaker 1: they don't have like tropical and tropic eyelids. And we 1696 01:32:22,880 --> 01:32:26,200 Speaker 1: for males, we also check for testicles to make sure 1697 01:32:26,240 --> 01:32:29,800 Speaker 1: they don't are not mon orchid or missing testicles, both 1698 01:32:29,840 --> 01:32:33,120 Speaker 1: of them. And that goes into our notes. And that way, 1699 01:32:33,120 --> 01:32:36,240 Speaker 1: when somebody reads about a dog that they had sold 1700 01:32:36,280 --> 01:32:39,360 Speaker 1: to California, they're like, oh good, that puppy came out 1701 01:32:39,400 --> 01:32:43,880 Speaker 1: with odds teeth, two testicles, and a harsh coat. And 1702 01:32:43,880 --> 01:32:46,960 Speaker 1: and we get that on test day, like this dog, 1703 01:32:47,600 --> 01:32:49,280 Speaker 1: it won't let us look at its mouth. I mean, 1704 01:32:49,320 --> 01:32:52,920 Speaker 1: it's absolutely like a kid of a temper tantrum. You know, 1705 01:32:53,000 --> 01:32:55,280 Speaker 1: you can get bit actually if you if you're not careful, 1706 01:32:55,280 --> 01:32:57,720 Speaker 1: and that'll count against that dog. It won't count against it. 1707 01:32:57,760 --> 01:32:59,720 Speaker 1: But if we can't get the tooth, let's say, we 1708 01:32:59,760 --> 01:33:02,760 Speaker 1: can't get the tooth exam done. No matter what, the 1709 01:33:02,800 --> 01:33:06,080 Speaker 1: dogs just ain't doing it ain't doing it. Then we'll 1710 01:33:06,120 --> 01:33:07,960 Speaker 1: put a note on the car and we'll come into 1711 01:33:08,080 --> 01:33:11,080 Speaker 1: you know, when the magazine scores are posted, it'll say 1712 01:33:11,600 --> 01:33:16,040 Speaker 1: tooth exam, um, dog too sensitive for tooth exam. Uh right, 1713 01:33:16,320 --> 01:33:17,960 Speaker 1: But that also tells you, as you're buying a dog 1714 01:33:18,040 --> 01:33:20,600 Speaker 1: later on, like, well, that's rare. It's rare that we 1715 01:33:20,640 --> 01:33:23,800 Speaker 1: can't look in the dog's mouth. It's it's rare. It's 1716 01:33:24,040 --> 01:33:25,800 Speaker 1: it's a little bit of a rodeo while you're doing 1717 01:33:25,800 --> 01:33:28,160 Speaker 1: it sometimes. But I can always tell the people who 1718 01:33:28,240 --> 01:33:30,800 Speaker 1: did this calming touch their dog because dogs just stand 1719 01:33:30,840 --> 01:33:35,040 Speaker 1: there like just like a dentist. It's like, it's like, 1720 01:33:35,120 --> 01:33:37,160 Speaker 1: let what's I mean. I haven't been to the dentist 1721 01:33:37,240 --> 01:33:38,479 Speaker 1: with a kid in a long time. But what was 1722 01:33:38,520 --> 01:33:41,080 Speaker 1: your your kid's first dentist deployment? Oh, they're a little 1723 01:33:41,120 --> 01:33:44,400 Speaker 1: freaked out by the littlest one, right. He had to 1724 01:33:44,439 --> 01:33:48,320 Speaker 1: go home with no toy because and come back a 1725 01:33:48,400 --> 01:33:50,519 Speaker 1: couple of days later. But only they happened his brother 1726 01:33:50,560 --> 01:33:52,320 Speaker 1: and sister got the toys and it burned him up 1727 01:33:52,360 --> 01:33:54,160 Speaker 1: so bad. A couple days later he got all picked up, 1728 01:33:54,240 --> 01:33:55,680 Speaker 1: went back in there and got taken care of. But 1729 01:33:55,760 --> 01:33:57,559 Speaker 1: picture if you'd have took here. He had had stitches 1730 01:33:57,600 --> 01:33:59,559 Speaker 1: a few times, so he didn't like he the minute 1731 01:33:59,560 --> 01:34:01,720 Speaker 1: he got an He's like, no, I bet you even 1732 01:34:01,760 --> 01:34:04,080 Speaker 1: smells like an asept because like, I know what goes 1733 01:34:04,120 --> 01:34:06,639 Speaker 1: on here. We're gonna start selling something in my head. Right. 1734 01:34:07,080 --> 01:34:09,439 Speaker 1: But picture if you had a kid and you prepared 1735 01:34:09,520 --> 01:34:11,679 Speaker 1: this kid from a baby, like no, no, no, stop. 1736 01:34:11,760 --> 01:34:14,280 Speaker 1: Once they understand, like no, mom and dad just gonna 1737 01:34:14,280 --> 01:34:17,000 Speaker 1: look to see if that little if you did that 1738 01:34:17,040 --> 01:34:18,280 Speaker 1: over and over again, then you put him in a 1739 01:34:18,360 --> 01:34:21,160 Speaker 1: dentist chair. He's like, yeah, hey, my mom does that. 1740 01:34:21,840 --> 01:34:23,920 Speaker 1: It's it's such a simple thing to do with a dog. 1741 01:34:24,040 --> 01:34:26,360 Speaker 1: Should you be would they should it be that? Um 1742 01:34:26,400 --> 01:34:29,040 Speaker 1: like in your mind, if it's properly trained, should it 1743 01:34:29,080 --> 01:34:31,280 Speaker 1: be that you could that it could have it could 1744 01:34:31,280 --> 01:34:33,920 Speaker 1: be limping because it's got a cactus thorn and its paw. 1745 01:34:34,439 --> 01:34:37,360 Speaker 1: It should stand out there and let you pull that. Yeah, 1746 01:34:37,439 --> 01:34:39,759 Speaker 1: and the one guy like have your body like restrain 1747 01:34:39,880 --> 01:34:43,000 Speaker 1: it and tape It's joshut happens a lot. Remember I 1748 01:34:43,040 --> 01:34:45,479 Speaker 1: sent you the picture that wooden doll that you're strapping 1749 01:34:45,520 --> 01:34:48,879 Speaker 1: the dog's mouth to get porcupine quills. I've taken porcupine 1750 01:34:48,920 --> 01:34:51,719 Speaker 1: quills out of Bravo's mouth. He mouthed when he didn't 1751 01:34:51,800 --> 01:34:54,280 Speaker 1: kill it, and I just said sit and I just 1752 01:34:54,360 --> 01:34:56,839 Speaker 1: grabbed his big old lips and I got my leatherman 1753 01:34:56,880 --> 01:35:01,439 Speaker 1: out and started pulling. He just like, okay, a big deal, really, 1754 01:35:02,280 --> 01:35:04,200 Speaker 1: but other dogs you get bit oh that that had 1755 01:35:04,280 --> 01:35:06,160 Speaker 1: my brother's dog and they had it was like a 1756 01:35:06,200 --> 01:35:12,200 Speaker 1: group effort. I couldn't. I couldn't trim my my about 1757 01:35:12,200 --> 01:35:14,559 Speaker 1: like nail trimming, like Karen, can you trim your dog's nails? 1758 01:35:14,640 --> 01:35:16,400 Speaker 1: Or do you bring it to a place I do? 1759 01:35:16,479 --> 01:35:18,559 Speaker 1: I do everything on my own. And how how's your 1760 01:35:18,600 --> 01:35:20,800 Speaker 1: dog do with it? Great? I mean that That's what 1761 01:35:20,800 --> 01:35:22,559 Speaker 1: I was going to ask you. Is the takeaway for 1762 01:35:23,240 --> 01:35:25,880 Speaker 1: you know, everybody, the one yeah, exactly for everyone, the 1763 01:35:25,920 --> 01:35:29,920 Speaker 1: one thing because I, um, you know, I got a Newfoundland. 1764 01:35:29,920 --> 01:35:32,720 Speaker 1: This is like moved Montana. Always wanted a dog, so 1765 01:35:32,760 --> 01:35:36,400 Speaker 1: I just like went for the biggest freaking dog exactly 1766 01:35:37,439 --> 01:35:41,080 Speaker 1: exactly as much as I do. Um. But the one thing, 1767 01:35:41,560 --> 01:35:44,200 Speaker 1: you know, I was like getting obsessed with reading training 1768 01:35:44,240 --> 01:35:47,839 Speaker 1: books and watching videos online. The one thing that seemed 1769 01:35:47,880 --> 01:35:51,759 Speaker 1: to make the most sense to me, which wasn't exactly 1770 01:35:51,760 --> 01:35:54,880 Speaker 1: a training technique, but seems to be training is to 1771 01:35:54,880 --> 01:35:59,320 Speaker 1: touch that animal everywhere all the time. So I would 1772 01:35:59,320 --> 01:36:02,519 Speaker 1: stick my fingers in his mouth. I would, you know, 1773 01:36:03,080 --> 01:36:06,360 Speaker 1: touch its ears everything. You can literally take his ears 1774 01:36:06,400 --> 01:36:08,240 Speaker 1: and put a bowl in it if you wanted to. Yeah, yeah, 1775 01:36:08,280 --> 01:36:10,840 Speaker 1: I mean I give him hairstyles and I actually have 1776 01:36:11,160 --> 01:36:14,880 Speaker 1: tied his ears together, get like a little ponytail. Um. 1777 01:36:14,920 --> 01:36:18,559 Speaker 1: It's terrible. But it comes to clipping nails now, people 1778 01:36:18,640 --> 01:36:21,320 Speaker 1: have to go pay, you know, a groomer to do 1779 01:36:21,479 --> 01:36:23,960 Speaker 1: to trimm the dog's nails because the dog just freaks 1780 01:36:24,120 --> 01:36:28,600 Speaker 1: out because you're trimming its nails. My dog has to 1781 01:36:28,600 --> 01:36:32,320 Speaker 1: be put under. That's how bad it is. Phil. We 1782 01:36:32,360 --> 01:36:35,040 Speaker 1: took her somewhere, they had her muzzled and strapped, and 1783 01:36:35,080 --> 01:36:37,000 Speaker 1: they still couldn't do it. So they actually gave her 1784 01:36:37,040 --> 01:36:41,519 Speaker 1: a we she was astray on the Fort Peck Reservation. 1785 01:36:41,560 --> 01:36:43,120 Speaker 1: We don't know what her life was like before we 1786 01:36:43,160 --> 01:36:45,840 Speaker 1: adopted her, and so but like you can't go near 1787 01:36:45,880 --> 01:36:51,840 Speaker 1: her pause nothing. She's terrified. Yeah. Well, you know what's 1788 01:36:51,960 --> 01:36:53,599 Speaker 1: saddest thing they had to meet. One of the saddest 1789 01:36:53,600 --> 01:36:55,960 Speaker 1: things ever happened to me is uh, hang you left 1790 01:36:55,960 --> 01:36:59,240 Speaker 1: t l I that was sad. Remember remember and Miles 1791 01:36:59,240 --> 01:37:00,920 Speaker 1: Sab used to hang out out with that old guy 1792 01:37:00,960 --> 01:37:04,280 Speaker 1: West Monsel. He was in his nineties and his wife 1793 01:37:04,280 --> 01:37:06,080 Speaker 1: passed away, and me and him were out messing around, 1794 01:37:06,240 --> 01:37:09,640 Speaker 1: driving to try to find some mushrooms one time, and 1795 01:37:09,680 --> 01:37:11,680 Speaker 1: he was he was eighty seven at the time, or 1796 01:37:11,720 --> 01:37:13,880 Speaker 1: maybe he just turned he's I think he's eighty seven, 1797 01:37:14,720 --> 01:37:16,280 Speaker 1: and we get we we stayed out longer, and we 1798 01:37:16,320 --> 01:37:18,680 Speaker 1: were playing out and staying out and and uh, he 1799 01:37:18,720 --> 01:37:22,120 Speaker 1: wanted me to drive and drop him off at the doctor. Okay, 1800 01:37:22,320 --> 01:37:23,639 Speaker 1: So now I was kind of weird, like, oh, what's 1801 01:37:23,640 --> 01:37:25,720 Speaker 1: going on while he's got a doctor, you know? So 1802 01:37:25,760 --> 01:37:27,000 Speaker 1: I dropped off and he goes in there for a 1803 01:37:27,000 --> 01:37:29,200 Speaker 1: while and I just mess around wait from to come out. 1804 01:37:29,640 --> 01:37:31,559 Speaker 1: And we're driving home. I was like, what's what's going 1805 01:37:31,600 --> 01:37:33,040 Speaker 1: on at the doctor there? And he goes, I had 1806 01:37:33,080 --> 01:37:35,960 Speaker 1: to get my ton ails cut because my wife had 1807 01:37:35,960 --> 01:37:39,240 Speaker 1: always cut my tones. I can't reach down there, so 1808 01:37:39,280 --> 01:37:40,960 Speaker 1: you had to make an appointment at the doctor. I said, 1809 01:37:40,960 --> 01:37:42,519 Speaker 1: I cut your damn you know, he never had me 1810 01:37:42,560 --> 01:37:43,800 Speaker 1: do it. I was like, I'll cut your tonils. I 1811 01:37:43,800 --> 01:37:46,479 Speaker 1: don't care going to the doctor to cut your tonils. 1812 01:37:47,160 --> 01:37:51,240 Speaker 1: Just beat alone and old man. Yeah, get a loving 1813 01:37:51,280 --> 01:37:55,120 Speaker 1: family and everything, but just maybe sad, ye to make 1814 01:37:55,160 --> 01:37:57,640 Speaker 1: you sad. Hearing about that, it kind of creeped me 1815 01:37:57,640 --> 01:38:01,960 Speaker 1: out a little bit actually, because because now you're thinking, 1816 01:38:01,960 --> 01:38:03,679 Speaker 1: I'm thinking, like you know that book I was trying 1817 01:38:03,680 --> 01:38:05,920 Speaker 1: to write, real men don't wear short socks or crocs, 1818 01:38:05,920 --> 01:38:08,879 Speaker 1: and real men don't, you know, go to get a pedicure. 1819 01:38:08,920 --> 01:38:10,840 Speaker 1: And now I know guys that actually go get pedicures. 1820 01:38:10,920 --> 01:38:12,880 Speaker 1: It's not that he wasn't going to get a pedicure. 1821 01:38:12,920 --> 01:38:15,120 Speaker 1: He's going to a doctor to have his tone nails cut. Well, 1822 01:38:15,120 --> 01:38:16,719 Speaker 1: you know, he could have went to a pedicure place. 1823 01:38:17,960 --> 01:38:19,400 Speaker 1: He's probably not. He probably doesn't want to be that 1824 01:38:19,520 --> 01:38:22,080 Speaker 1: kind of guy. Or let's go, let's get back to dogs. Yeah, yeah, 1825 01:38:22,120 --> 01:38:26,040 Speaker 1: I'll just feel sad about my friend by myself. Tell 1826 01:38:26,080 --> 01:38:30,040 Speaker 1: everybody about the Upland Institute project, okay, which we kind 1827 01:38:30,040 --> 01:38:32,280 Speaker 1: of been talking about without talking about it, right, right. 1828 01:38:32,320 --> 01:38:36,320 Speaker 1: So I have a very good friend that's a really 1829 01:38:36,320 --> 01:38:39,840 Speaker 1: well known dog trainer in West Michigan. I've known him 1830 01:38:40,040 --> 01:38:42,599 Speaker 1: off and on since he was really young, and uh, 1831 01:38:42,760 --> 01:38:46,040 Speaker 1: he's been training dogs for thirty years. Him and I 1832 01:38:46,120 --> 01:38:48,280 Speaker 1: kind of reconnected when he moved close to me and 1833 01:38:48,800 --> 01:38:51,479 Speaker 1: with me being a judge and seeing all the different 1834 01:38:51,479 --> 01:38:54,640 Speaker 1: things that our training related issues during a test, like 1835 01:38:54,680 --> 01:38:57,439 Speaker 1: our upper level tests are a lot of obedience. Our 1836 01:38:57,479 --> 01:39:00,439 Speaker 1: puppy test is a lot of just natural natural mo ability. 1837 01:39:00,600 --> 01:39:06,200 Speaker 1: What do you what do you roll under? Obedience, steadiness, retrieving, healing, waiting, 1838 01:39:06,400 --> 01:39:08,400 Speaker 1: you know, waiting when we go do shots away from 1839 01:39:08,400 --> 01:39:12,160 Speaker 1: the dog. Everything in that test there's a there's obedience 1840 01:39:12,400 --> 01:39:15,040 Speaker 1: portions of it like come on called falls in death, sure, 1841 01:39:15,640 --> 01:39:20,799 Speaker 1: primary will be right stay whoa um? So we're always 1842 01:39:20,800 --> 01:39:23,400 Speaker 1: sitting there kicking things back and forth about like oh 1843 01:39:23,479 --> 01:39:25,559 Speaker 1: I saw and he says, well, yeah, that's probably because 1844 01:39:25,600 --> 01:39:28,240 Speaker 1: the person didn't do this before they did that. And 1845 01:39:28,360 --> 01:39:30,320 Speaker 1: I think back on my testing career, which I don't 1846 01:39:30,320 --> 01:39:33,559 Speaker 1: test my dogs very often, but as a requirement, you 1847 01:39:33,600 --> 01:39:36,040 Speaker 1: are required as a judge to test your dog every 1848 01:39:36,080 --> 01:39:38,080 Speaker 1: so often because they want to put you on that 1849 01:39:38,120 --> 01:39:40,120 Speaker 1: side of the fence. So you don't. You're just not 1850 01:39:40,200 --> 01:39:42,200 Speaker 1: to judge your whole life. You gotta go there and 1851 01:39:42,200 --> 01:39:45,400 Speaker 1: go like me and my dog are here. Guys, Guys, 1852 01:39:45,439 --> 01:39:47,800 Speaker 1: remember I might be watching you next year. You know. 1853 01:39:49,600 --> 01:39:51,519 Speaker 1: Hell man, you should have seen me my last test. 1854 01:39:51,600 --> 01:39:54,519 Speaker 1: I was actually told that I was no longer a 1855 01:39:54,600 --> 01:39:57,519 Speaker 1: judge last January or no two januaryes ago. I said. 1856 01:39:57,720 --> 01:39:59,559 Speaker 1: Made they go, well, you went over your grace here. 1857 01:39:59,560 --> 01:40:01,719 Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, I didn't like. Yeah, we keep pretty 1858 01:40:01,760 --> 01:40:04,160 Speaker 1: good records. And I had to get a test lined 1859 01:40:04,240 --> 01:40:07,320 Speaker 1: up and I did, and it was bravo that big 1860 01:40:07,360 --> 01:40:09,960 Speaker 1: dog I have with a long tail, that big big broco. 1861 01:40:11,200 --> 01:40:14,280 Speaker 1: And we're not as in the test. But as a judge, 1862 01:40:14,280 --> 01:40:17,360 Speaker 1: I'm like, yeah, we're we're okay. I would be so 1863 01:40:17,479 --> 01:40:19,840 Speaker 1: unnerved in that environment. Man, we're not going to get 1864 01:40:19,880 --> 01:40:22,439 Speaker 1: all fours today. We have a zero to four. But 1865 01:40:22,479 --> 01:40:24,639 Speaker 1: I said, I got twos and threes in the right spot. 1866 01:40:24,640 --> 01:40:28,040 Speaker 1: We're okay. Last part of the test, last part of tests, 1867 01:40:28,040 --> 01:40:31,120 Speaker 1: the easiest part. They launched a duck with a launcher, 1868 01:40:31,200 --> 01:40:33,960 Speaker 1: like a big giant sling shot. They launched this duck 1869 01:40:34,000 --> 01:40:38,559 Speaker 1: across a duck, a duck, expired duck, dead duck, out 1870 01:40:38,600 --> 01:40:41,519 Speaker 1: of a launcher a giant sling shot. Huh. It's like 1871 01:40:42,000 --> 01:40:44,120 Speaker 1: it's like a four foot sling someone saves the duck 1872 01:40:44,200 --> 01:40:45,960 Speaker 1: from when we save it from other things, or we 1873 01:40:46,000 --> 01:40:49,840 Speaker 1: buy ducks like that. But anyway, every dog loves this. 1874 01:40:50,280 --> 01:40:52,360 Speaker 1: The dog. You know the birds up in the sky. 1875 01:40:52,760 --> 01:40:55,080 Speaker 1: You shoot the blank gun in the air to simulate 1876 01:40:55,160 --> 01:40:57,519 Speaker 1: the shot, which is another part of obedience. He's not 1877 01:40:57,520 --> 01:41:01,040 Speaker 1: allowed to leave until the duck hits the water out um, 1878 01:41:01,080 --> 01:41:03,599 Speaker 1: and and then you send the dog. And I'm like, oh, 1879 01:41:03,760 --> 01:41:06,200 Speaker 1: we're gonna pass. I'm gonna be a judge again. And 1880 01:41:06,360 --> 01:41:09,800 Speaker 1: Bravo just stood there on the bank and looked at 1881 01:41:09,840 --> 01:41:14,000 Speaker 1: that duck and I'm like, fetch, fetch, pitch it up. 1882 01:41:15,400 --> 01:41:18,559 Speaker 1: He's not budging, he's not putting his toe in the water. 1883 01:41:18,960 --> 01:41:21,960 Speaker 1: And I'm like, this dog loves fetching out of the water. 1884 01:41:22,160 --> 01:41:25,280 Speaker 1: I take this dog goose and duck hunting right. He's like, 1885 01:41:25,720 --> 01:41:27,880 Speaker 1: ain't doing it. And I'm like, what am I gonna do? 1886 01:41:27,960 --> 01:41:30,000 Speaker 1: So that you know the judges there and they all 1887 01:41:30,040 --> 01:41:32,040 Speaker 1: know me because you know, you make friends over the 1888 01:41:32,120 --> 01:41:36,439 Speaker 1: years and their dogs harshly. And I also know that 1889 01:41:36,520 --> 01:41:38,960 Speaker 1: to pass this portion, that dog has got to get 1890 01:41:39,000 --> 01:41:43,240 Speaker 1: that duck out of that water. All my pleading is 1891 01:41:43,240 --> 01:41:46,040 Speaker 1: going to bring my score down. But if I can 1892 01:41:46,040 --> 01:41:49,559 Speaker 1: get that duck to shore, I'll get a one.

We filmed it in 1932 01:43:50,880 --> 01:43:55,320 Speaker 1: four states because because Justin is a guy that um, 1933 01:43:55,400 --> 01:43:58,280 Speaker 1: he doesn't train dogs for testing. You know, he can 1934 01:43:58,280 --> 01:44:00,000 Speaker 1: do parts of it, but that's not he's he's trying 1935 01:44:00,000 --> 01:44:01,920 Speaker 1: and the dogs for a hunter wants to go wild 1936 01:44:01,960 --> 01:44:04,799 Speaker 1: bird hunting with your dog. So he literally takes strings 1937 01:44:04,840 --> 01:44:09,400 Speaker 1: of dogs to Kansas, runs them Montana before the season 1938 01:44:09,479 --> 01:44:11,479 Speaker 1: opens in August, same thing. Him and I went to 1939 01:44:11,560 --> 01:44:14,320 Speaker 1: North Dakota and filmed in August, and all that was 1940 01:44:15,080 --> 01:44:17,760 Speaker 1: reinforcing that yard training and that field training we did 1941 01:44:17,840 --> 01:44:22,080 Speaker 1: in Michigan. And we have real nice shots of like say, 1942 01:44:22,200 --> 01:44:23,880 Speaker 1: a bunch of sharp tails getting up and the dog 1943 01:44:23,960 --> 01:44:25,519 Speaker 1: just standing in the middle of the sharp tails just 1944 01:44:26,360 --> 01:44:29,120 Speaker 1: oh boy, you know, and he'll take a blank gun 1945 01:44:29,160 --> 01:44:31,360 Speaker 1: at that point and then he'll shoot the blank gun 1946 01:44:31,439 --> 01:44:34,120 Speaker 1: and dog stands through it. So that's the kind of 1947 01:44:34,160 --> 01:44:39,840 Speaker 1: style of training and his But but oh, it's very instructional. 1948 01:44:39,920 --> 01:44:41,519 Speaker 1: It in fact, it's not like look what the dog 1949 01:44:41,600 --> 01:44:43,160 Speaker 1: can do with the right training. It's like, how, here's 1950 01:44:43,160 --> 01:44:46,360 Speaker 1: how you do. And and we show examples like day one, 1951 01:44:46,479 --> 01:44:48,479 Speaker 1: like here's the dog the first time on a woe post. 1952 01:44:49,120 --> 01:44:51,320 Speaker 1: It's almost like the first time you try to train 1953 01:44:51,400 --> 01:44:54,320 Speaker 1: your dog trimmy dogs nails. He's jerking. He gets on 1954 01:44:54,400 --> 01:44:56,680 Speaker 1: this woe post, which is a solid steak like a 1955 01:44:56,720 --> 01:44:59,599 Speaker 1: horseshoe steak, and a little cable. First time he hits 1956 01:44:59,600 --> 01:45:01,640 Speaker 1: the end of well, he's bucking like a horse and 1957 01:45:01,680 --> 01:45:06,320 Speaker 1: he's he doesn't understand why, and you eventually when he doesn't, 1958 01:45:06,720 --> 01:45:08,920 Speaker 1: when he does give you what you want, which is 1959 01:45:09,000 --> 01:45:11,680 Speaker 1: him to just stand there, then you start overlaying a 1960 01:45:11,760 --> 01:45:13,280 Speaker 1: name to it, which in that case would be woe. 1961 01:45:14,120 --> 01:45:16,360 Speaker 1: It goes back like hell to you. Don't you don't 1962 01:45:16,400 --> 01:45:18,080 Speaker 1: start a dog. You don't teach a dog to heal 1963 01:45:18,160 --> 01:45:20,439 Speaker 1: with the word heal. You teach a dog to heal 1964 01:45:20,800 --> 01:45:24,120 Speaker 1: with motion and a leash. Once you see the compliance, 1965 01:45:24,640 --> 01:45:28,760 Speaker 1: then you give the command a name. And I watched him. 1966 01:45:28,800 --> 01:45:31,439 Speaker 1: He would come on my podcast about every six months, 1967 01:45:31,880 --> 01:45:34,679 Speaker 1: so I get listener questions and the way he breaks 1968 01:45:34,760 --> 01:45:39,160 Speaker 1: down a question, it's like always like number one downloaded episodes. 1969 01:45:39,640 --> 01:45:42,240 Speaker 1: They just love the way he even and it's hard to, 1970 01:45:42,400 --> 01:45:44,759 Speaker 1: you know, look at someone's dog from an email because 1971 01:45:44,760 --> 01:45:46,360 Speaker 1: you're not you're only getting what he said. My dog 1972 01:45:46,439 --> 01:45:48,800 Speaker 1: doesn't pick up the bird. Sometimes it does, and he's 1973 01:45:48,880 --> 01:45:52,519 Speaker 1: you know, he just breaks it down. And so we decided, Um, 1974 01:45:53,360 --> 01:45:57,040 Speaker 1: you know, I felt I was kind of confident from 1975 01:45:57,640 --> 01:46:00,840 Speaker 1: doing shows with you to watch the camera guy does, 1976 01:46:00,920 --> 01:46:02,600 Speaker 1: so I had I put myself in the job of 1977 01:46:02,680 --> 01:46:06,680 Speaker 1: the cameraman and followed him along for fifteen months, and 1978 01:46:06,760 --> 01:46:09,840 Speaker 1: I would we're really lucky that COVID hit so that 1979 01:46:09,960 --> 01:46:11,680 Speaker 1: shut my company down and I could go over to 1980 01:46:11,760 --> 01:46:14,200 Speaker 1: his kennel, I could go to Kansas, North Dakota. I 1981 01:46:14,320 --> 01:46:17,240 Speaker 1: had the whole year want to do whatever heck I 1982 01:46:17,280 --> 01:46:20,719 Speaker 1: wanted to and uh, and we were putting it together. 1983 01:46:21,040 --> 01:46:23,400 Speaker 1: It's it's an editing, it's an audio right now, and 1984 01:46:23,479 --> 01:46:26,719 Speaker 1: it's it's coming out hopefully by the time this errors, 1985 01:46:27,040 --> 01:46:29,040 Speaker 1: it should be out. And it's called the Upland Institute 1986 01:46:29,080 --> 01:46:32,240 Speaker 1: dot com or that's a website and what how's it 1987 01:46:32,280 --> 01:46:34,000 Speaker 1: going to function? Like if someone wants the material, what 1988 01:46:34,040 --> 01:46:35,519 Speaker 1: do they do to get the material? They would they 1989 01:46:35,560 --> 01:46:39,160 Speaker 1: would purchase the material. They there right now on the website. 1990 01:46:39,240 --> 01:46:41,800 Speaker 1: There's a trailer commercial that talks about it. And then 1991 01:46:41,880 --> 01:46:45,799 Speaker 1: there's in the beginning, we've got three three classes were offering. 1992 01:46:46,479 --> 01:46:49,320 Speaker 1: The one is called Foundation and Fundamentals. And that's when 1993 01:46:49,320 --> 01:46:52,240 Speaker 1: you were kind of talking about that you could do 1994 01:46:52,320 --> 01:46:53,720 Speaker 1: that with a lot of dogs. And that's what you're saying, 1995 01:46:53,720 --> 01:46:57,559 Speaker 1: any dog, dog, house dog, whatever, any dog would benefit 1996 01:46:57,640 --> 01:47:00,320 Speaker 1: because it's all that early stuff that expo. As you're 1997 01:47:00,320 --> 01:47:03,719 Speaker 1: putting the foundation blocks underneath it. It'll go a little 1998 01:47:03,760 --> 01:47:07,120 Speaker 1: bit further into introduction to birds and introduction to gunfire. 1999 01:47:07,600 --> 01:47:12,479 Speaker 1: But you know, in the beginning, like crate training, tie out, stake, calming, 2000 01:47:12,560 --> 01:47:16,519 Speaker 1: touch come one called early exploratory walks. Those are things 2001 01:47:16,560 --> 01:47:18,880 Speaker 1: that every dog should do with their owner. And people 2002 01:47:19,160 --> 01:47:21,360 Speaker 1: kind of get in this habit of like they treat 2003 01:47:21,439 --> 01:47:24,320 Speaker 1: that puppy like a little kid instead of like a dog, 2004 01:47:25,160 --> 01:47:28,080 Speaker 1: and they tend not to expose it to enough stuff. 2005 01:47:28,120 --> 01:47:30,080 Speaker 1: And then all of a sudden, the dogs six months 2006 01:47:30,120 --> 01:47:32,960 Speaker 1: old and goes to the dog parking dogs. You know, 2007 01:47:33,080 --> 01:47:37,519 Speaker 1: he's in a corner, you know, without the confidence. So um, 2008 01:47:37,680 --> 01:47:41,599 Speaker 1: foundation and fundamentals is like the core class. And then 2009 01:47:42,800 --> 01:47:45,280 Speaker 1: Brody you might know this little bit. Yanni doesn't do it, 2010 01:47:45,360 --> 01:47:47,479 Speaker 1: and I'm sure Clay doesn't do it in the hound world, 2011 01:47:48,000 --> 01:47:50,320 Speaker 1: but in the retrieving world, it's a thing called the 2012 01:47:50,360 --> 01:47:53,439 Speaker 1: trained retrieve. If your dog is a sloppy retriever or 2013 01:47:53,600 --> 01:47:56,000 Speaker 1: doesn't pick up game, or picks it up and drops 2014 01:47:56,040 --> 01:47:59,320 Speaker 1: it fifteen feet from you. Um, there's a process to 2015 01:47:59,400 --> 01:48:01,360 Speaker 1: go through to clean up that retrieve and called the 2016 01:48:01,439 --> 01:48:05,200 Speaker 1: trained retrieve. And it's got sixteen different parts to it, 2017 01:48:05,320 --> 01:48:08,519 Speaker 1: you know. But so that that's a separate class. A 2018 01:48:08,600 --> 01:48:11,960 Speaker 1: person could buy that class um if they just like, say, 2019 01:48:12,040 --> 01:48:13,880 Speaker 1: I don't care for my dog Steady, and he's pretty 2020 01:48:13,880 --> 01:48:16,120 Speaker 1: good dog, let's me clip clip his nails and he's 2021 01:48:16,120 --> 01:48:18,759 Speaker 1: already create trained, but I wouldn't mind some better retrieving 2022 01:48:18,800 --> 01:48:20,880 Speaker 1: out of him. So you could do that class. And 2023 01:48:20,960 --> 01:48:25,360 Speaker 1: then what piggybacks onto foundations and fundamentals is advanced bird work. 2024 01:48:25,920 --> 01:48:28,720 Speaker 1: That's where you would see a dog that not only 2025 01:48:28,800 --> 01:48:32,519 Speaker 1: would hold point, but learn to relocate on birds, learn 2026 01:48:32,560 --> 01:48:34,920 Speaker 1: to hunt with another dog, and back and honor another dog. 2027 01:48:35,240 --> 01:48:37,560 Speaker 1: It's like it's like an appointing dog world. If a 2028 01:48:37,640 --> 01:48:41,599 Speaker 1: dog's on point, another dog sees it. Ideally that dog 2029 01:48:41,680 --> 01:48:43,679 Speaker 1: is going to point the dog that's pointing the bird, 2030 01:48:44,240 --> 01:48:46,800 Speaker 1: he's like, oh, he's at work. I can't sneak up 2031 01:48:46,840 --> 01:48:49,759 Speaker 1: on him. Let him get his work done. My dogs 2032 01:48:49,800 --> 01:48:51,040 Speaker 1: don't do that. I mean, if I can get it 2033 01:48:51,080 --> 01:48:53,320 Speaker 1: ready for a test, I could do it, but I don't. 2034 01:48:53,360 --> 01:48:55,160 Speaker 1: I don't hunt him that way, you know. I just 2035 01:48:55,400 --> 01:48:57,320 Speaker 1: try to get good, trying to be a better wingshooter 2036 01:48:57,360 --> 01:48:58,880 Speaker 1: than I am a dog trainer. To be honest with 2037 01:48:59,000 --> 01:49:02,080 Speaker 1: you you mentioned Johnny's dog. I think the interesting thing 2038 01:49:02,120 --> 01:49:06,200 Speaker 1: about um, what mingus is supposed to do or what 2039 01:49:06,280 --> 01:49:09,000 Speaker 1: Clay's coon hounds are supposed to do, is a bird 2040 01:49:09,080 --> 01:49:10,760 Speaker 1: dog is supposed to He's kind of got to know 2041 01:49:10,880 --> 01:49:14,479 Speaker 1: all these things, right, Yeah, like just a lot of 2042 01:49:14,520 --> 01:49:18,920 Speaker 1: commands and stuff. Like the hound dogs they're kind of 2043 01:49:19,320 --> 01:49:23,160 Speaker 1: it's like they it's like, no, man, you got not that. 2044 01:49:23,280 --> 01:49:26,400 Speaker 1: Not that it's one thing, but all this stuff about sitting, healing, 2045 01:49:26,640 --> 01:49:29,400 Speaker 1: rolling over, shaking hands and all that's like not part 2046 01:49:29,439 --> 01:49:33,400 Speaker 1: of the conversation. It's like, did you do anything like 2047 01:49:33,520 --> 01:49:35,040 Speaker 1: that Yanni with him or were you just trying to 2048 01:49:35,080 --> 01:49:37,800 Speaker 1: get him on a raccoon early on? Yeah? No, we 2049 01:49:37,920 --> 01:49:39,400 Speaker 1: still I mean I want him to be a good 2050 01:49:39,520 --> 01:49:42,639 Speaker 1: uh family dog first and get companion, so I try 2051 01:49:42,680 --> 01:49:45,280 Speaker 1: to be real harsh on him with like when we're 2052 01:49:45,320 --> 01:49:48,360 Speaker 1: running together, come when I call, Yeah, come, money calls. 2053 01:49:48,439 --> 01:49:50,160 Speaker 1: We did a lot of work on the what's the 2054 01:49:50,240 --> 01:49:53,920 Speaker 1: long rope called rope fancy terms. You do do some 2055 01:49:54,040 --> 01:49:56,320 Speaker 1: of that house dog stuff. Oh yeah, I guess because 2056 01:49:56,320 --> 01:49:58,640 Speaker 1: it's your house dogs. Yeah exactly, Clay. You must have 2057 01:49:58,680 --> 01:50:01,120 Speaker 1: because I used to watch you did some of your 2058 01:50:01,160 --> 01:50:03,000 Speaker 1: YouTube's and one of your dogs is always on your 2059 01:50:03,240 --> 01:50:05,599 Speaker 1: you know, behind you during your podcast and during your 2060 01:50:05,640 --> 01:50:08,240 Speaker 1: YouTube stuff. Did you do a lot of obedience with 2061 01:50:08,320 --> 01:50:13,479 Speaker 1: your hounds? Very informal obedience training that that particular dog 2062 01:50:13,880 --> 01:50:15,680 Speaker 1: and and a lot of these dogs I'm hunting are 2063 01:50:15,720 --> 01:50:20,080 Speaker 1: just naturally pretty obedient and and you know, so informal 2064 01:50:20,160 --> 01:50:23,240 Speaker 1: training just by them being around me so much, you know. 2065 01:50:23,520 --> 01:50:26,839 Speaker 1: So what that is is like dogs get certain things inherited, 2066 01:50:26,880 --> 01:50:30,840 Speaker 1: and that's called cooperation with a dog on our scorecard. 2067 01:50:30,960 --> 01:50:34,880 Speaker 1: And so cooperative dog isn't a real challenge to live 2068 01:50:34,960 --> 01:50:37,400 Speaker 1: with if they're cooperative dog and done a little bit 2069 01:50:37,479 --> 01:50:40,280 Speaker 1: of overlank sit when stay, or wait to give you 2070 01:50:40,320 --> 01:50:43,360 Speaker 1: a food bowl. But there's a lot of dogs that 2071 01:50:43,439 --> 01:50:46,679 Speaker 1: have a super high desire, like their desires at attend 2072 01:50:46,720 --> 01:50:50,080 Speaker 1: and their co operations at a two and so they're 2073 01:50:50,320 --> 01:50:52,920 Speaker 1: they're like, I hate that. I always analogize kids to it. 2074 01:50:53,280 --> 01:50:55,439 Speaker 1: They're like that kid that can't sit down in class, 2075 01:50:55,720 --> 01:50:57,840 Speaker 1: always getting yelled at, always getting put in the hall. 2076 01:50:57,880 --> 01:50:59,759 Speaker 1: The teachers like, oh, we gotta put them on ridland. 2077 01:51:00,320 --> 01:51:02,800 Speaker 1: You know. That's kind of like there's bird dogs and 2078 01:51:02,960 --> 01:51:05,960 Speaker 1: hounds I'm sure that are much like that. They're almost 2079 01:51:06,040 --> 01:51:08,240 Speaker 1: like a it's like a three ring circus getting them 2080 01:51:08,240 --> 01:51:10,479 Speaker 1: in and out of the truck. And where I would 2081 01:51:10,520 --> 01:51:12,760 Speaker 1: venture to say that you could tell your home dogs 2082 01:51:12,800 --> 01:51:15,720 Speaker 1: to sit open one door and load one up if 2083 01:51:15,760 --> 01:51:18,160 Speaker 1: you cared to do it. But I've never really spent 2084 01:51:18,240 --> 01:51:20,400 Speaker 1: any time with a lot of houndsmen a little bit. 2085 01:51:20,840 --> 01:51:24,120 Speaker 1: You know, there's there's there's a lot of variants in 2086 01:51:24,200 --> 01:51:26,920 Speaker 1: the hounds. Some of them are not and I've heard 2087 01:51:26,960 --> 01:51:32,000 Speaker 1: the term used biddable there. There there's some strains of 2088 01:51:32,080 --> 01:51:34,479 Speaker 1: hounds that are just they're just not interested in that. 2089 01:51:34,760 --> 01:51:36,679 Speaker 1: They're just not that good. Not to say it couldn't 2090 01:51:36,680 --> 01:51:39,599 Speaker 1: be done, but primaries, primarily it's an issue of function. 2091 01:51:39,720 --> 01:51:41,639 Speaker 1: We just don't use them that way, so we don't 2092 01:51:41,680 --> 01:51:43,880 Speaker 1: need them trained that way. But I think even if 2093 01:51:43,920 --> 01:51:47,400 Speaker 1: you could train them that way, it did they would 2094 01:51:47,520 --> 01:51:52,040 Speaker 1: never be most of them would never be as good 2095 01:51:52,120 --> 01:51:54,040 Speaker 1: as maybe some of the bird dogs that have been 2096 01:51:54,200 --> 01:51:59,400 Speaker 1: bred for so long to be cooperative. I got a 2097 01:52:00,000 --> 01:52:03,400 Speaker 1: odd question for you, then we'll open up Membail has 2098 01:52:03,439 --> 01:52:06,280 Speaker 1: got specific dog questions.

Ron. I'd 2110 01:52:39,120 --> 01:52:43,360 Speaker 1: like to commend you only what four episodes being on 2111 01:52:43,439 --> 01:52:47,000 Speaker 1: the show, you picked up all that knowledge. Is a photographer, 2112 01:52:47,120 --> 01:52:55,519 Speaker 1: it's well shot, it's pretty I'm like, I'm impressed he 2113 01:52:55,640 --> 01:52:58,600 Speaker 1: was taking notes there there. I did take notes, and 2114 01:52:59,600 --> 01:53:03,400 Speaker 1: I was always shocked with your your videographers in the field. 2115 01:53:04,160 --> 01:53:06,280 Speaker 1: And and I remember you told me to editing has 2116 01:53:06,320 --> 01:53:10,599 Speaker 1: got a big thing to do with it. It's all 2117 01:53:11,120 --> 01:53:12,719 Speaker 1: to do. You gotta still be good with the camera. 2118 01:53:13,240 --> 01:53:16,040 Speaker 1: But when we started, like day one, when we started 2119 01:53:16,080 --> 01:53:18,760 Speaker 1: doing this, I went out and bought a GoPro and 2120 01:53:18,960 --> 01:53:22,640 Speaker 1: like called up my son in law, who he's an 2121 01:53:22,760 --> 01:53:26,479 Speaker 1: editor for another hunting company and he said, what do 2122 01:53:26,479 --> 01:53:28,439 Speaker 1: you goetta go pro for? I said, well I wouldn't. 2123 01:53:28,439 --> 01:53:30,360 Speaker 1: He goes, no, you need a movie camera. And I 2124 01:53:30,479 --> 01:53:33,200 Speaker 1: called up I think it was Rick or Garrett. One 2125 01:53:33,240 --> 01:53:35,120 Speaker 1: of them was real good. He got back with me 2126 01:53:35,680 --> 01:53:37,800 Speaker 1: and he told me the brand of camera that we 2127 01:53:37,920 --> 01:53:41,400 Speaker 1: shot in Montana. He said, that's you'll be able to 2128 01:53:41,439 --> 01:53:43,439 Speaker 1: figure out how to use it. It doesn't have too 2129 01:53:43,520 --> 01:53:46,880 Speaker 1: many features, but it'll it'll be everything you need. So 2130 01:53:47,160 --> 01:53:49,120 Speaker 1: then I went out and spent a bunch of money 2131 01:53:49,160 --> 01:53:51,040 Speaker 1: on the camera. And then I was like, well, we 2132 01:53:51,120 --> 01:53:54,800 Speaker 1: gotta do this now, you know, because it's invested. I'm invested, right, 2133 01:53:55,000 --> 01:53:58,600 Speaker 1: and uh just just uh yeah. So there was a 2134 01:53:58,640 --> 01:54:00,839 Speaker 1: secret to a lot of it. It's called the tripod, 2135 01:54:01,560 --> 01:54:04,000 Speaker 1: which you guys, we never carry tripods for the camera 2136 01:54:04,040 --> 01:54:07,519 Speaker 1: guys out there, but um, when whenever I could set 2137 01:54:07,640 --> 01:54:10,200 Speaker 1: something up because we kind of know what's gonna happen, 2138 01:54:10,280 --> 01:54:12,880 Speaker 1: but what you're doing instructional, so it's different, right, right, 2139 01:54:13,000 --> 01:54:15,479 Speaker 1: So we'll shoot off sticks like they'll shoot off sticks 2140 01:54:15,479 --> 01:54:17,200 Speaker 1: now and that on food stuff. But generally we like 2141 01:54:17,320 --> 01:54:21,560 Speaker 1: that kind of like um moving around like like like 2142 01:54:21,720 --> 01:54:24,720 Speaker 1: it's like with the body, you know what I mean yeah, 2143 01:54:25,000 --> 01:54:29,320 Speaker 1: like it feels more human to human. You know, it 2144 01:54:29,400 --> 01:54:32,120 Speaker 1: has more of a like a present quality to it's 2145 01:54:32,160 --> 01:54:34,600 Speaker 1: free hand. Yeah, you don't call it freehand though, what 2146 01:54:34,640 --> 01:54:39,120 Speaker 1: the hell they call it? Yeah? Freehand? Sure, but can 2147 01:54:39,160 --> 01:54:42,760 Speaker 1: I see my dog? No? I mean Yanni never, he 2148 01:54:42,800 --> 01:54:46,200 Speaker 1: doesn't compliment made people buy anything. Well, I do appreciate that. 2149 01:54:46,240 --> 01:54:48,840 Speaker 1: And I also found out that I also found out 2150 01:54:48,920 --> 01:54:51,840 Speaker 1: that editors, well I just I'm saying he doesn't throw 2151 01:54:51,880 --> 01:54:54,840 Speaker 1: them around. Let me put it differently, Yanni doesn't run 2152 01:54:54,920 --> 01:54:57,720 Speaker 1: around given compliments where they're not doing all right. Well, 2153 01:54:57,760 --> 01:55:00,120 Speaker 1: then yes it is if you get one. It was 2154 01:55:00,160 --> 01:55:03,720 Speaker 1: good visually, it's very pleasant to watch. It's well, he 2155 01:55:03,760 --> 01:55:06,560 Speaker 1: doesn't blow a bunch of smoke. No, okay this in now. 2156 01:55:07,000 --> 01:55:10,040 Speaker 1: I was told recently that I'm stingy with my likes 2157 01:55:10,160 --> 01:55:16,160 Speaker 1: on the Instagram. People know that he can anybody crop 2158 01:55:16,280 --> 01:55:19,000 Speaker 1: right now, listen. I like it because you don't run 2159 01:55:19,080 --> 01:55:21,560 Speaker 1: around just shine everybody up all the time. And when 2160 01:55:21,600 --> 01:55:23,680 Speaker 1: it was a compliment, you pay, you pay attention to 2161 01:55:23,760 --> 01:55:26,280 Speaker 1: the compliment. It's an earned compliment. I feel good when 2162 01:55:26,320 --> 01:55:28,400 Speaker 1: you're honest. HiT's something like button on mine. Steve never, 2163 01:55:28,680 --> 01:55:32,240 Speaker 1: Steve never does anymore. Come on, don't know what I do. 2164 01:55:33,840 --> 01:55:36,800 Speaker 1: Let me get my other shot. I'm not that fond 2165 01:55:36,880 --> 01:55:39,680 Speaker 1: of the platform, but I should have said this, so 2166 01:55:40,880 --> 01:55:43,920 Speaker 1: we we were going to start an Instagram account for that, 2167 01:55:44,080 --> 01:55:47,000 Speaker 1: but that's not something I'm counting on. I'm advertising this 2168 01:55:47,120 --> 01:55:49,680 Speaker 1: in magazines and partners of mine and from the podcast, 2169 01:55:50,160 --> 01:55:53,800 Speaker 1: so all this information will keep coming up on my 2170 01:55:53,960 --> 01:55:56,560 Speaker 1: Instagram count which is the Hunting Dog Podcast. Don't go 2171 01:55:56,640 --> 01:55:59,200 Speaker 1: to my name, go to the hunting Dog podcast. That's 2172 01:55:59,200 --> 01:56:02,960 Speaker 1: your handle that yeah, no underscores and the lashes the 2173 01:56:03,040 --> 01:56:06,200 Speaker 1: hunting Dog Hunting Dog Podcast on Instagram, and we'll put 2174 01:56:06,280 --> 01:56:10,160 Speaker 1: up notifications and clips and stuff like that so you 2175 01:56:10,200 --> 01:56:13,120 Speaker 1: can also get information from that. I'm glad you said Instagram. 2176 01:56:13,880 --> 01:56:15,920 Speaker 1: Here's my dog question. I kind of know the answer 2177 01:56:16,000 --> 01:56:17,120 Speaker 1: to it, but I just i'd like to hear you 2178 01:56:17,200 --> 01:56:26,640 Speaker 1: say about it. Um our little dog will heal for me? Okay, 2179 01:56:27,240 --> 01:56:30,160 Speaker 1: and it will heal on command off leash or on 2180 01:56:30,280 --> 01:56:34,680 Speaker 1: a leash either. That's impressive. It does it farther away 2181 01:56:34,760 --> 01:56:37,120 Speaker 1: off leash? Sure? Because no, because I don't I don't 2182 01:56:37,240 --> 01:56:39,680 Speaker 1: have the ability to get its attention right, but it'll 2183 01:56:39,760 --> 01:56:42,080 Speaker 1: like it kind of knows. I'm talking about right unleash 2184 01:56:42,240 --> 01:56:47,880 Speaker 1: dead nuts. But it won't do the command for other people. 2185 01:56:48,680 --> 01:56:52,480 Speaker 1: But in like sophisticated dog training, I'm guessing that you 2186 01:56:52,760 --> 01:56:56,680 Speaker 1: like do do you guys? Um? Do you guys view 2187 01:56:56,720 --> 01:56:59,160 Speaker 1: it that a dog should be that any handler should 2188 01:56:59,160 --> 01:57:00,640 Speaker 1: be able to come in and get out of the 2189 01:57:00,720 --> 01:57:04,160 Speaker 1: dog or is it handler specific? I I would say 2190 01:57:05,120 --> 01:57:08,080 Speaker 1: if somebody had a dog that was really well rounded, 2191 01:57:08,320 --> 01:57:10,320 Speaker 1: I could probably take him to a test and pass him. 2192 01:57:10,320 --> 01:57:12,560 Speaker 1: And healing is in the test, so he would probably 2193 01:57:12,920 --> 01:57:16,000 Speaker 1: acquiesced and saying okay, he's my owner today. But most 2194 01:57:16,080 --> 01:57:19,400 Speaker 1: dogs would act differently without their owner. But I get 2195 01:57:19,440 --> 01:57:23,200 Speaker 1: it with the differently. But but like a properly trained horse, yeah, 2196 01:57:23,760 --> 01:57:27,240 Speaker 1: it's almost like horse are probably gonna I should ruin 2197 01:57:27,320 --> 01:57:29,200 Speaker 1: us by my sister in law. My understanding of a 2198 01:57:29,280 --> 01:57:33,560 Speaker 1: properly trained horse is that riders can be interchangeable. Yeah, 2199 01:57:34,320 --> 01:57:36,080 Speaker 1: there's a style of riding. A rider should get on 2200 01:57:36,120 --> 01:57:37,880 Speaker 1: that horse, and it should it shouldn't need to figure 2201 01:57:37,920 --> 01:57:40,440 Speaker 1: out you know, it's like this means that, this means that, 2202 01:57:40,640 --> 01:57:43,360 Speaker 1: and the basics are squeeze the legs mean this, the 2203 01:57:43,480 --> 01:57:46,000 Speaker 1: rain like these basic commands that if you're a ride 2204 01:57:46,080 --> 01:57:48,600 Speaker 1: or you ride a certain style and the horse's right, 2205 01:57:48,640 --> 01:57:50,200 Speaker 1: you should be able to be functional with the horse. 2206 01:57:50,520 --> 01:57:53,160 Speaker 1: But I always see dogs that they're just not gonna 2207 01:57:53,200 --> 01:57:55,280 Speaker 1: listen to most people, and then there's a person to 2208 01:57:55,400 --> 01:57:57,160 Speaker 1: listen to, right, And I think that just comes from 2209 01:57:57,200 --> 01:58:00,320 Speaker 1: them being a pack animal. Like somehow you've established yourself 2210 01:58:00,320 --> 01:58:03,280 Speaker 1: as to alpha and the dog kind of understands that, 2211 01:58:03,680 --> 01:58:05,760 Speaker 1: and like, well, when Steve tells me that, he means it. 2212 01:58:06,120 --> 01:58:07,800 Speaker 1: And if the kids try to do it, you know, 2213 01:58:08,160 --> 01:58:11,000 Speaker 1: I bet you you probably work more with a dog 2214 01:58:11,280 --> 01:58:15,560 Speaker 1: than the kids do. Well. When I when it doesn't 2215 01:58:15,600 --> 01:58:19,360 Speaker 1: do what I say on that least, it doesn't go unnoticed, right, 2216 01:58:20,720 --> 01:58:23,760 Speaker 1: you know, like right, and that's how you snap you 2217 01:58:23,920 --> 01:58:25,360 Speaker 1: if you give it a little now you don't. I mean, 2218 01:58:25,360 --> 01:58:26,480 Speaker 1: I don't need to do anything now. I just need 2219 01:58:26,520 --> 01:58:29,600 Speaker 1: to like just give it a little jiggle. And she's like, oh, yeah, 2220 01:58:29,800 --> 01:58:32,120 Speaker 1: I'm good. I don't think she likes it. I think 2221 01:58:32,160 --> 01:58:33,920 Speaker 1: when I got around the least, she's like, damn it, 2222 01:58:34,000 --> 01:58:38,080 Speaker 1: this guy probably like that dog given given themselves. They 2223 01:58:38,200 --> 01:58:40,080 Speaker 1: just feel like a horse they've given. If a horse 2224 01:58:40,160 --> 01:58:41,440 Speaker 1: had his choice, he'd be out in the pasture. He 2225 01:58:41,440 --> 01:58:45,480 Speaker 1: wouldn't be rolled can I think about it. They're like, really, 2226 01:58:45,880 --> 01:58:48,760 Speaker 1: I gotta care your dumb mess around all day, you know, 2227 01:58:49,360 --> 01:58:50,760 Speaker 1: and a dog to say, way, like if you did 2228 01:58:50,880 --> 01:58:53,200 Speaker 1: do nothing with a dog, the co operative ones are 2229 01:58:53,240 --> 01:58:54,680 Speaker 1: gonna be able to be lived with, and the wild 2230 01:58:54,720 --> 01:58:57,200 Speaker 1: ones are gonna drive it crazy. They're just always going 2231 01:58:57,240 --> 01:58:59,880 Speaker 1: to be into something because there's no structure. It goes 2232 01:59:00,040 --> 01:59:03,760 Speaker 1: right back to kids, no structure, no foundation, you're dealing 2233 01:59:03,840 --> 01:59:06,800 Speaker 1: with problems down the road. Later on, Yeah, I had 2234 01:59:06,800 --> 01:59:08,480 Speaker 1: a guy to say something interested me the other day 2235 01:59:08,480 --> 01:59:11,040 Speaker 1: about kids, and we were talking about having rough dads. 2236 01:59:12,200 --> 01:59:14,440 Speaker 1: He was saying that, you know, after spending his career 2237 01:59:14,480 --> 01:59:17,960 Speaker 1: in public education as an administrator and then having you know, 2238 01:59:18,040 --> 01:59:20,080 Speaker 1: his own family as well, he said, I used to 2239 01:59:20,080 --> 01:59:23,160 Speaker 1: be worried about being too hard on my kids, But 2240 01:59:23,320 --> 01:59:25,360 Speaker 1: after the things I've seen in my career, I realized 2241 01:59:25,400 --> 01:59:27,000 Speaker 1: that the people that are too hard on their kids 2242 01:59:27,120 --> 01:59:31,240 Speaker 1: have it just about right. That's kind of that goes 2243 01:59:31,320 --> 01:59:34,160 Speaker 1: with dogs.

I have learned a lot. You 2273 02:01:02,240 --> 02:01:04,600 Speaker 1: kind to realize this, but I actually like picked up 2274 02:01:05,160 --> 02:01:06,640 Speaker 1: like a handful of I didn't have a ton of 2275 02:01:06,680 --> 02:01:08,520 Speaker 1: exposure to you and your kids because we were working 2276 02:01:08,560 --> 02:01:11,000 Speaker 1: and stuff or hunting or whatever, but I picked up 2277 02:01:11,040 --> 02:01:14,200 Speaker 1: a handful of like, um, it's hard to explain it, 2278 02:01:15,160 --> 02:01:20,480 Speaker 1: just like I recognized early on, like a demeanor the 2279 02:01:20,600 --> 02:01:25,960 Speaker 1: way you spoke to your kids. Uh, I don't know, 2280 02:01:26,160 --> 02:01:31,160 Speaker 1: there's like like authority but understanding on equal footing but 2281 02:01:31,280 --> 02:01:32,880 Speaker 1: not you know, it was like it was it was 2282 02:01:33,280 --> 02:01:35,240 Speaker 1: you spoke to your kids in a deliberate sort of way. 2283 02:01:35,440 --> 02:01:37,760 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, you know. There was not like sweet 2284 02:01:37,800 --> 02:01:41,240 Speaker 1: talking people know it. It was it was very conversational 2285 02:01:41,360 --> 02:01:43,920 Speaker 1: with them, like kind of like leveling with them. I 2286 02:01:44,000 --> 02:01:46,640 Speaker 1: picked up on that, you know, I like I noticed 2287 02:01:46,680 --> 02:01:50,160 Speaker 1: it even prior to having kids, that there was a it. 2288 02:01:51,000 --> 02:01:53,160 Speaker 1: It didn't seem accidental, you know, it seemed like it 2289 02:01:53,240 --> 02:01:55,720 Speaker 1: was a developed way to deal with kids. I'll give 2290 02:01:55,800 --> 02:01:57,840 Speaker 1: I'll give Sue most of the credit because I was 2291 02:01:57,880 --> 02:02:01,640 Speaker 1: working on the road, but that way of I mean literally, 2292 02:02:01,680 --> 02:02:04,120 Speaker 1: i'd get compliments. I could take my three girls when 2293 02:02:04,200 --> 02:02:06,520 Speaker 1: they were ten or twelve years old to a dog 2294 02:02:06,640 --> 02:02:10,520 Speaker 1: test and I never had a They weren't climbing on anything, 2295 02:02:10,600 --> 02:02:13,680 Speaker 1: they weren't starting trouble. They're just they occupy themselves, you 2296 02:02:13,760 --> 02:02:16,120 Speaker 1: know that Just it's just the way you raise him. 2297 02:02:16,640 --> 02:02:18,920 Speaker 1: It's funny how you wind up making it your own. 2298 02:02:19,000 --> 02:02:21,200 Speaker 1: Like my boy there, they were on a plane and 2299 02:02:22,200 --> 02:02:23,680 Speaker 1: he wanted to get water something. I said, we'll go 2300 02:02:23,720 --> 02:02:25,000 Speaker 1: up and talk to that moment up there and get water. 2301 02:02:25,080 --> 02:02:26,520 Speaker 1: You know, a while later she comes back. You have 2302 02:02:26,600 --> 02:02:29,480 Speaker 1: the nicest boy. You know, makes my weak But how 2303 02:02:29,560 --> 02:02:32,000 Speaker 1: many parents would have said, okay, I'll go get it 2304 02:02:32,120 --> 02:02:34,520 Speaker 1: for you. So you make him. You're gonna go out 2305 02:02:34,520 --> 02:02:36,520 Speaker 1: there and here's what you're saying. You're telling this and 2306 02:02:36,840 --> 02:02:38,640 Speaker 1: get the thing. When I came to your house last night, 2307 02:02:38,680 --> 02:02:40,520 Speaker 1: all three kids go up and you haven't seen Ronnie 2308 02:02:40,560 --> 02:02:42,520 Speaker 1: in a long time, go up and shake Ronnie's hand. Yeah, 2309 02:02:42,720 --> 02:02:45,680 Speaker 1: you know, and you know the kids are so But 2310 02:02:45,720 --> 02:02:47,120 Speaker 1: I hope by the time they're eighteen, they'll do it 2311 02:02:47,120 --> 02:02:50,480 Speaker 1: without me, Like they'll you know, not embarrassing the people 2312 02:02:50,520 --> 02:02:52,240 Speaker 1: in the eye, and they'll shake their hand when they 2313 02:02:52,280 --> 02:02:54,680 Speaker 1: interview for a job. Someday. That's all. That's all you 2314 02:02:54,720 --> 02:02:58,640 Speaker 1: can hope for. Yeah, and alays got a dog question? Yeah, 2315 02:02:58,800 --> 02:03:03,400 Speaker 1: can you teach an old dog trick? Seriously? Like in 2316 02:03:03,600 --> 02:03:07,120 Speaker 1: regards to let's say someone I've always wanted this. Like, 2317 02:03:07,320 --> 02:03:10,440 Speaker 1: let's say someone there's a there's a German short hair 2318 02:03:10,520 --> 02:03:12,640 Speaker 1: pointer that's a year or two old at the pound 2319 02:03:13,240 --> 02:03:16,400 Speaker 1: that was never it was just someone's house dog and 2320 02:03:16,440 --> 02:03:18,880 Speaker 1: they got rid of it. It's never kept chewing up 2321 02:03:18,880 --> 02:03:22,720 Speaker 1: the couch and and someone's like, man, I don't want 2322 02:03:22,720 --> 02:03:26,240 Speaker 1: to pay two tho dollars for a bread puppy, but 2323 02:03:26,280 --> 02:03:28,120 Speaker 1: I'm gonna get this dog from the pound and turn 2324 02:03:28,200 --> 02:03:31,000 Speaker 1: it into a bird dog. Like can that be done? Oh? Yeah? 2325 02:03:32,360 --> 02:03:34,880 Speaker 1: The problem is if you adopt a dog, and I 2326 02:03:34,960 --> 02:03:37,480 Speaker 1: think Yanni could probably speak to it because he he 2327 02:03:37,560 --> 02:03:40,440 Speaker 1: adopted a hunting dog from a brand new one, but 2328 02:03:40,520 --> 02:03:43,200 Speaker 1: no idea what his background was, no background. So if 2329 02:03:43,200 --> 02:03:45,080 Speaker 1: you don't have the background, let's say on that German 2330 02:03:45,160 --> 02:03:48,560 Speaker 1: short hair like an older one it might come from 2331 02:03:48,640 --> 02:03:51,680 Speaker 1: what's called what we would refer to as a showline. 2332 02:03:52,160 --> 02:03:54,360 Speaker 1: Like so the dogs were in the show ring and 2333 02:03:54,520 --> 02:03:58,120 Speaker 1: really not hunted for the last that dog's parents, grandparents, 2334 02:03:58,240 --> 02:04:01,000 Speaker 1: great grandparents, they just didn't hunt much. They're still gonna 2335 02:04:01,040 --> 02:04:03,400 Speaker 1: have instincts, They're still gonna be okay. But you could 2336 02:04:03,440 --> 02:04:06,680 Speaker 1: certainly get a dog from a pound. And I know 2337 02:04:06,760 --> 02:04:09,480 Speaker 1: there's a guy who rescues dogs where his wife does, 2338 02:04:10,200 --> 02:04:13,560 Speaker 1: and he whenever a like an English setter and English 2339 02:04:13,600 --> 02:04:15,400 Speaker 1: pointer or something shows up in the sporting dog world, 2340 02:04:15,640 --> 02:04:18,040 Speaker 1: he takes it in and he hunts with them. They 2341 02:04:18,160 --> 02:04:21,000 Speaker 1: can they can learn obedience, you know, like their genetics 2342 02:04:21,040 --> 02:04:25,200 Speaker 1: don't expire and they can learn there and that nothing 2343 02:04:25,480 --> 02:04:28,360 Speaker 1: no genetics expire. The nose is going to be there 2344 02:04:28,400 --> 02:04:30,920 Speaker 1: the whole time. The love of birds, it's like like 2345 02:04:31,920 --> 02:04:35,680 Speaker 1: the big here's one. I again. I love analogies. My 2346 02:04:35,760 --> 02:04:38,200 Speaker 1: biggest problem is when people call me up, they'll ask 2347 02:04:38,280 --> 02:04:40,680 Speaker 1: those questions like can my dogs still do this? And 2348 02:04:40,720 --> 02:04:42,760 Speaker 1: I never did it? Yes? And then the other one 2349 02:04:42,880 --> 02:04:45,240 Speaker 1: is I got this brand new dog, when should I 2350 02:04:45,280 --> 02:04:48,800 Speaker 1: get it into birds? Everybody wants to see their dog 2351 02:04:49,400 --> 02:04:51,800 Speaker 1: point a bird first, right, So my buddy says, oh, 2352 02:04:51,800 --> 02:04:53,400 Speaker 1: I gotta I got some quail or there's a hunt 2353 02:04:53,400 --> 02:04:55,880 Speaker 1: club over here. They'll let you go after a test 2354 02:04:55,920 --> 02:04:58,440 Speaker 1: and we'll bring your puppy out there. And I'm like, okay, 2355 02:04:58,480 --> 02:05:00,240 Speaker 1: that's fine, you want to see it once. But people 2356 02:05:00,360 --> 02:05:03,840 Speaker 1: overdo it and I keep in They're like, so, Ron, 2357 02:05:03,920 --> 02:05:06,240 Speaker 1: you're telling me I don't need to get my young 2358 02:05:06,320 --> 02:05:08,160 Speaker 1: dog in front of birds. And I always tell him, 2359 02:05:08,920 --> 02:05:11,040 Speaker 1: you know, did your dad leave a Playboy magazine on 2360 02:05:11,120 --> 02:05:13,440 Speaker 1: the counter so you when you hit Pubert you would 2361 02:05:13,480 --> 02:05:19,400 Speaker 1: like it? No? I mean, yeah, I understand, right, you 2362 02:05:19,520 --> 02:05:21,880 Speaker 1: don't need to expose them that. The difference in the 2363 02:05:21,960 --> 02:05:23,200 Speaker 1: dog and a kid is the dog gets to be 2364 02:05:23,200 --> 02:05:26,200 Speaker 1: a teenager by the time he's ten months old, and 2365 02:05:26,280 --> 02:05:30,120 Speaker 1: a teenager takes thirteen years. But again, throwing that Playboy 2366 02:05:30,200 --> 02:05:32,520 Speaker 1: magazine in front of him, that's not what they need. 2367 02:05:32,680 --> 02:05:36,400 Speaker 1: They need the shaking hands waiting to be released. They 2368 02:05:36,440 --> 02:05:41,440 Speaker 1: need opening the door. They need the structure, the pointing 2369 02:05:41,480 --> 02:05:43,320 Speaker 1: instinct and the love of the game is genetically in 2370 02:05:43,360 --> 02:05:49,840 Speaker 1: the dog. One last question, Yeah, what's the uh what's 2371 02:05:49,880 --> 02:05:54,400 Speaker 1: the advice you'd give to any new either new dog owner, 2372 02:05:54,480 --> 02:05:58,800 Speaker 1: anyone bringing home a rescue dog, A puppy, Like, what's 2373 02:05:58,840 --> 02:06:02,080 Speaker 1: the thing they need to get on? Uh? For for one? 2374 02:06:02,160 --> 02:06:05,000 Speaker 1: Always create training. You know if you a lot of 2375 02:06:05,040 --> 02:06:07,640 Speaker 1: people try to do without a create. Create training is 2376 02:06:07,680 --> 02:06:11,080 Speaker 1: super important for a young dog. Okay, a create would 2377 02:06:11,080 --> 02:06:14,400 Speaker 1: be like a portable transportation create. You'll see him on airlines, 2378 02:06:14,480 --> 02:06:17,840 Speaker 1: they call him airline creates. Um getting a getting a 2379 02:06:17,880 --> 02:06:22,280 Speaker 1: puppy used to sleeping in that crate by himself learning 2380 02:06:23,000 --> 02:06:28,160 Speaker 1: not it helps him to not develop separation anxiety. Like, 2381 02:06:28,360 --> 02:06:30,720 Speaker 1: it's what training mean. He's comfortable in there. He's comfortable 2382 02:06:30,720 --> 02:06:32,560 Speaker 1: in there. Now his first day in there, he's gonna 2383 02:06:32,600 --> 02:06:34,920 Speaker 1: bark and squawk and yell and and it's just like 2384 02:06:35,040 --> 02:06:37,280 Speaker 1: the first time you put a baby in a crib 2385 02:06:37,320 --> 02:06:40,120 Speaker 1: when they're old enough to cry. If you are putting 2386 02:06:40,160 --> 02:06:42,280 Speaker 1: them down for a nap and they cry and you're 2387 02:06:42,280 --> 02:06:44,400 Speaker 1: going and get him, what did they do? Oh?
